Have you ever wanted to do something tangible that made a difference for those who have no voice or opportunity? Have you ever wanted to expand and challenge your global perspective? Have you ever wanted to learn more about how you can be a voice for those who have no voice? You can! Join us on a Hero Holiday!
We provide year-round global humanitarian opportunities in Mexico, Dominican Republic, Thailand and Haiti. In each location, we provide practical assistance to those living in extreme poverty. Activities may include building homes or schools, distributing supplies, providing food, mobile medical clinics and working with children at risk. You will never be the same!
Each Hero Holiday trip is a great balance between hard work, experiential learning, life-altering awareness, great memories, and a renewed passion to return home and affect change, and we would love to have you join us!

Hey Everyone
Just wanted to let you know that our Absolute people who are on the ground in Port au Prince, Haiti have confirmed that our friends at the orphanages we work with are in fact, all alive and accounted for. However, they have all suffered much loss as they have lost friends and family in […]

After many days of laughter and tears, the house we build for this family for Christmas is finally complete.
The family made us fresh duck with beans and salad for yet another meal together! It is pretty incredible to be on the receiving end of such generosity and sacrifice.
During the dedication the crew from Canada presented […]

Today, Sunday December […]
