I went on a medical mission trip to Tijuana with this organization in early December of 2012. I have been on two brigades with another organization in the past so I thought I knew fully what to expect, but they managed to impress me still. Everything was hassle-free as the trip was well organized and well designed in structure. They even utilized locals to help overcome language barriers that might have existed between the Spanish-speaking patients and some of the non-Spanish-speaking volunteers. I will be attending more mission trips with this organization and hope to bring along many others. Please help us impact lives
