Leadership
Katie Esmark
Leadership Statement:
I founded this organization because I know firsthand how travel to third world countries can truly open a person's eyes to the meaning of his or her own life. As a teacher I have had many of my students complain about what they don't have instead of being able to recognize how blessed they truly are. It is my aim to take them out of their comfort zone and show them firsthand how others in the world live and change their hearts so that their lives may become service oriented.
