Cambodia and Vietnam Adventure-0Clean Water Project
by: TRENA CARPENTER - United StatesProgram: Vietnam & Cambodia: Project Clean WaterMy son went on the Vietnam/Cambodia trip Summer of 2024. He loved it!!

The planned activities were great and the organization did a great job of teaching the kids about safe eating in foreign countries which was a concern for me. They did some volunteer work, building water filtration systems in Cambodia. My ...

Most magical trip I've ever taken
by: Isabelle - United StatesProgram: Vietnam & Cambodia: Project Clean WaterVolunteering with ARCC this summer in Cambodia & Vietnam was one of the best decisions I've made thus far in my life. The volunteer project was beyond impactful- I especially loved teaching English at the primary school! Besides this, being able to experience a new country & culture with complete strangers was an awesome change from daily life. I truly made best friends on this trip that I will never be able to forget, & highly suggest you go on an ARCC trip of your own & do the same thing.
