“It was by far the most amazing trip I have ever been on. I would go back in a heartbeat. I have made lifelong friends not only with other Young Living members but in Nepal as well. I loved getting to truly help someone and the only thing I got in return was a smile and a hug!”

—  Kellie Jo Sundberg | Oklahoma



         

         

“Being immersed in their culture was so unbelievable. I had never been off the North American continent, so I was so nervous. But the Nepalese people were just so kind and so welcoming.”

—  Lindsay Kusy | British Columbia, Canada

All applicants will be considered. The number of members selected is based on need, and there are limited spots available for each service trip.

All applicants will be notified of acceptance, denial, or waitlist status within weeks after submitted an application. Those who have been accepted will need to commit by making a nonrefundable deposit of $500 USD, which will go toward the overall cost of the trip.
