Waterstone will be taking a team of adults and kids (5th grade & up) to Guatemala for a vision trip with IDEAS. IDEAS work in Guatemala focuses on recovering the worth and value of the unseen. We will spend time hosting wheelchair clinics and visiting an orphanage for kids with special needs. We will connect with kids and families and while assisting at the wheelchair clinics. At the orphanage, we will help with some cleaning, basic repairs and painting. This is a great opportunity for parents to take one kid on a trip for a cross-cultural experience and serve these very deserving kids. To learn more about the impact of a wheelchair for kids with special needs, read Alma's story, https://alma.ideasworld.org/.
