My Nonprofit Reviews

I went with Reaching the Hungry (RTH) to Tijuana. Mexico to serve at an orphanage called Colina de Luz (CDL). My daughter and wife came with me as well as 4 others from the church I serve as a pastor in Fallbrook, CA.

The trip from beginning to end was very well run. Crossing the border can be a logistical nightmare, but the RTH made it very smooth for all of us.

CDL a wonderful and beautiful orphanage that houses 60 kids from 2 to 17. There are many stories of kids whose lives have been transformed by CDL.

The trip schedule was very well planned. We played lots of games with the kids, did crafts, ate meals and had a movie night with them. The schedule was focused on maximizing our time to bond with the kids and give the CDL program staff a break.

RTH is a phenomenal organization led by Pastor Carlos, who is a personal friend of mine. He is a great leader who has equipped his staff and ministry leaders to do a great job

This is my second trip to CDL and I will go again.

We went down to orphanage to Colina De Luz in Tijuana with Pastor Carlos and Reaching the Hungry with 48 others from 4 churches. It was our first time doing a one day mission trip with RTH It was a tremendous experience. Pastor Carlos and his wife, Lisa, were very organized which made the trip go very smooth.

We were not only able to do many work projects for the orphanage, but also interact with the kids and staff there. It was great to build relationships with people from other churches. This is not about any one church. It is all about God's kingdom coming earth as it in heaven. Praise God!
