Guyana

Intervarsity has been going to Guyana South America for at least five years. Hearing God’s call to reach out to this country, we go and serve the community by helping construct buildings for churches, and participating in various church events. Two other main parts of the trip is the AIDS ministry and the deaf ministry. God has been working through these trips every year and we look forward to seeing what He’ll do next.

NYCUP

The New York City Urban Project, or NYCUP, is an ongoing project where students from all over the US come to experience God in the city and be a part of His work there. The Spring Break Plunge is when students come to work and live in the South Bronx for one week. Students are exposed to the realities of the inner-city, given opportunities to serve at local non-profit and church run organizations, and given a brief overview about what God has to say on issues of poverty and justice. For more information contact Rachel Unkle at rmu2070@rit.edu or by phone at (814) 460-3814, or visit the NYCUP website.

Habitat for Humanity

We get to work with this non-profit organization building houses for those in need. Recently, the team has gone to the Buffalo area where they have not only been able to construct homes, but build relationships with people there. This trip will also be happening again this year.
