Trip Cost: $2,900I have never personally had the opportunity to take a mission trip or study abroad due to my commitment to my immediate community; but through this amazing leap of faith I will be able to travel to Thailand to make a difference like never before. I feel an extreme magnetism to this side of the world and blessed to be called on to serve alongside my fantastic sorority sisters. As our chapter also celebrates our centennial this year, we can continue to make an impact more than ever before.
We are the women of the Oregon Alpha chapter of Pi Beta Phi at the University of Oregon. We are traveling to Chiang Mai, Thailand this December, 2015 to work with Remember Nhu and will teach sexual education to young girls who were preventatively removed from high-risk environments where they could have been sold into the sex trafficking system. Additionally, Pi Phis feel very passionate about children's literacy, and we will also bring English language books to help the girls improve their reading skills in English. We are so excited to experience a different culture and to work for a cause that empowers women and girls!
