Following up on last year’s

successful and impactful

service trip, we will be re-

turning to the Dominican

Republic with ImpactLives via

t h e o r g a n i z a t i o n ’ s

“ImpactQuest®” program.

The program is structured as such:

1. Students engage in “equipping”

sessions (assessments, discussion,

coaching, & training, etc.) matched

to their service experience.

2. Students experience a service learn-

ing experience designed to meet one

of the five basic human needs:

shelter, education, medical, food or

water.

3. During the experience, students use

the information from the “equipping”

& training sessions to meet personal

objectives and improve relationships

with others.

4. At the end of the experience,

students prepare a personal applica-

tion plan that will allow students to

use the knowledge they’ve acquired

and the insights they’ve gained in

their “everyday life” back home.
