In April 2008 Lee visited the Dominican Republic with a charity called Mission Direct, and had a very rewarding time working on projects to help people living in poverty.
In 2009 Lee and Hannah hope to return to the Dominican Republic and work on projects such as building homes, visiting hospitals, distributing aid and spending time with people in a different surrounding and culture.
Lee “I hope to re-visit the projects that I worked on back in April, and I can’t wait to see the completion of some of the homes that I helped out on.
For me, the best bit about the D.R. was the people, they are just so friendly and hospitable, and have so little, but just want to share it with you.
I am so looking forward to getting my hands dirty again!”
Hannah: “This will be a completely new experience for me, and something that I am both very excited and nervous about. I am looking forward to working on the various projects and hopefully will be able to incorporate some of my Occupational Therapy skills in a developing country.”
