For several years, the Foundation has assisted in funding groups of students to take extraordinary trips abroad. International travel is one of the best educations a young person can attain. The summer of 2026 tour was a journey to Munich, Turkey, Naples, Denia, Alicante, Mykonos, and Rome.
Student Elena Balderas said, “I’m very thankful for this opportunity and the new friends I gained from this trip. I learned so much about the history of our world and the difference between our cultures. I got to see things from a new perspective, try new foods, learn new languages, and be more physically active. This trip broke the illusion in my mind that my current life is my only possibility. It reminded me that there are different lives, different people, and different futures are always possible. It gave me a chance to escape my home life and discover new parts of me.”
