Summer Leadership Camp Abroad
Summer 2022 is not too far away to begin planning for a Summer Leadership Camp in Costa Rica and the Dominican Republic. This travel abroad opportunity is a unique opportunity to also serve and develop leadership skills. ILI Foundation manages the volunteer leadership while a partner travel company manages the travel details.
​
You can join ILI Foundation in working with local development organizations abroad to run summer camps for children who live in extreme poverty. Areas of service includes painting and light construction. We play sports with children abroad while also seeing the local historical and tourist sites. Teenagers can participate ages 14-18 and earn a certificate in Volunteer Service Abroad.
