Summer Service in Rural Vietnam

This is a program for students who seek a life-altering study abroad experience. Students devote a summer to international service—they perform group service projects (much of it manual labor) in the rural Vietnamese countryside, working and living alongside local university students. Students leave the program with the kind of pride that only the most gratifying of experiences can inspire. The program is open to students of all majors and language levels—from beginners to heritage learners.
