Dominican Republic

with 2nd Mile Missions

The Adventure

The trip of a lifetime

Experience the Dominican Republic with Wildman and 2nd Mile Missions. For all the beauty the DR has to offer, there is also plenty of need, and the greatest way to understand the need and see the impact of education and spiritual enrichment in the lives of impoverished children is to experience it firsthand. Awareness trips are a powerful way to learn, serve and make an even greater impact.

Cool Stuff: Enjoy time eating local meals, playing cards and furthering connections with friends and staff of the Education Center, House of Hope and Church of God for the Nations.
