[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Honestly - I think they are obnoxious. I think it is a way for folks with money to feel good about themselves by going to a fun location, doing some community service to benefit others, and then having fun and getting people to pay for it. It is questionable whether the people who are receiving the services asked for the help or even appreciate being the source of people with money's good feelings for using their vacation to help the poor. Yuck.[/quote] This. I worked with DWB for a long time before I had kids and honestly this "mission trips" really do a lot of destruction to the town. They come through, set up a mission, use a ridiculous amount of resources, and spread the word high and far. By the time a steady stream of people are getting to them for intended service they are leaving town. [/quote]
