It's very sad to see how children overseas live. I remember coming back at night from Antiqua and seeing a child about 3 yrs. old in tattered clothing, begging on the street corner at around 11pm or so at night. Hubby is a retired NY cop and seeing how the kids survive over there brought him to tears. It's very emotional visiting the orphanages etc.

Well we went as a group from Teachers college. Our university (The University of Western Ontario) has been going there for years as an alternative spring break so when we wanted to do a service learning trip we knew we would go there because of the amazing repuation they have with Western. I will be going back next year
