My school requires 6-8th graders to do up to twenty hours of community service each year. Being a Spanish teacher, I wanted to do a dual community service/travel abroad trip where they might serve a community for 3 days and then we'd travel/sight see/learn for the next three days. Of course I'd want this to be in a Spanish speaking country. Does anyone know of any companies that might have their hand in something like that?
