When asked what they hoped to experience abroad students Sonrisa Bebo and Parker Perry gave these two quotes.

"I'm hoping to experience a lot of things through this! Getting to see another part of the world is going to be so exciting. I'm really hoping to experience personal change and growth during my time in Zimbabwe!"

- Sonrisa Bebo

"In Zimbabwe, I'm looking forward to witnessing the lasting effects of the work that many of us have been doing with Wishes for Water back home; it's an inspiring project in and of itself, but to see the impact that we are making firsthand is something I am very excited about. I'm also anticipating working closely with Dr. Trent, learning more about her amazing life and experiences, and hopefully growing as both a leader and person while in the presence of such great leadership." 

- Parker Perry

Hello everyone! Our site has officially opened and is accepting donations for the next 5 weeks! PLC is raising $10,000 to support PLC’s study abroad in Zimbabwe. 

This program allows students to broaden their world perspective and make lasting memories. When asked about a favorite memory Lily Chavez shared the following story!

 "One of my favorite memories of being in Zimbabwe was the dinner cruise on the Zambezi River! We went as a group on the dinner cruise in Victoria Falls and got to have a candlelit dinner while we watched the beautiful sunset. We saw hippos and lots of crocodiles while we cruised through the Zambezi! My favorite moment was when the sun had set, and we were all gathered around the table conversing with a solo traveler from Paris. It was such a beautiful moment where we were all present and having the best time together!"
