What Textbooks Can’t Teach

At some point, every writer has heard the old phrase show, don’t tell, and here at Milkshake we think that it applies to life beyond the keyboard.  So instead of telling teens what life is like in other cultures around the world, how about letting them experience it firsthand? Me To We youth volunteer trips do just that.

Me To We offers fully immersive volunteer trips for students to developing communities in Kenya, Ecuador, China, India and other countries. Each and every trip includes hands-on community service opportunities and global education. Volunteers actively work to build schools, promote clean water initiatives, and some even help out inside the classroom.

These remarkable adventures are life changing—not only for the developing communities, but also for the young participants. Trips are scheduled year-round and are all-inclusive. Scholarships are also available.

Pack your teenager’s bags: it’s time for them to see—and change—the world!

Would you consider sending your teen on a volunteer trip?
