Contribute to meaningful service projects that provide for improved public heath and wellness. Depending on the needs of the community at your time of arrival, your service could include initiatives such as health data collection, public health advocacy, putting together first aid kits for distribution, or projects that support the long-term health and sustainability of the local environment. Your new WAFA certification will also equip you for future service work off the beaten path, as you will learn the basic skills to communicate with any individual who does not share your the same language, and applies to both humans and animals alike.

Enjoy a kayaking or rafting excursion in a state famed for its many rapids and rivers. And don’t forget to bring your hiking boots!
