Thoughts & Feelings


What do you hope to accomplish with your participation?

Besides the building of the actual latrines which serve the communities for 10+ years, I hope we can help the people we serve in all the ways their setting has deprived them of. I is tragic that many people of the first world are never exposed to, or experience what it would be like to live as many people in rural parts of Dominican republic and other rustic and impoverished areas do.  I owe it to inspire hope and joy to the less fortunate. 

Why is it important for Sigma Chi to sponsor this activity?

It is important for Sigma Chi to sponsor this activity as a means to fully uphold the standards we follow. This trip is such a one of a kind experience and I can only hope to live my life surrounded by people who invoke themselves in things like this. It is important for our chapter to participate as it is easy to become it is easy to get caught up with everything moving fast while at school. This trip allows us to understand our values and what really maters to us. 

What person experience has prepared you for this trip?

Last years trip was the single best thing I've ever done with my life. I hope I can take more of a leadership role while on the trip , and even expand our care and aid to the people we serve.
