Our Summer Mission Trip to the Dominican Republic offers a powerful opportunity to serve alongside a local church and make a meaningful impact in surrounding communities. Throughout the trip, we’ll take part in a wide range of outreach activities. Our Vacation Bible School (VBS) program will reach hundreds of children across multiple villages, sharing hope, joy, and the love of Christ. Our Isaiah 58 teams will help meet practical needs by distributing food to families facing hardship. There will also be special opportunities to minister to children in a local hospital and at an orphanage—bringing encouragement, compassion, and care to those who need it most. For those who enjoy hands-on work, construction projects will be available for all skill levels. Whether it’s small repairs, painting, masonry, or helping build a new structure from the ground up, there’s a place for you to serve.
Who Should Go?
With such a diverse range of activities, this trip is designed for everyone—from pre-teens to “mature” adults. No matter your age or experience, you can be part of what God is doing.

Handfuls of Hope partners with physicians, nurses, dentists, dental hygienists, opticians, and other medical professionals to help meet the urgent healthcare needs of underserved communities through medical mission trips. Our teams work side-by-side with local medical professionals who generously volunteer their time to care for those in need. Together, we establish makeshift clinics that become a lifeline for entire communities. For individuals who are physically unable to travel, smaller teams are mobilized to bring care directly to homes in surrounding villages. Each trip typically lasts 3–5 days, during which our teams serve thousands of men, women, and children. Clinics are fast-paced and often see entire families at once. We operate with an organized system where nurses triage patients, follow established protocols, and use clinical judgment to determine when a provider is needed. On average, our teams care for 400–800 patients per day, offering primarily primary care services that address a wide range of medical needs.
