Love adventure and getting your hands dirty? This trip is for you! Integrated Tribal Development Foundation (ITDF), based out of Chiang Mai, is a well-established and respected organization working with hill tribe villages of northern Thailand. The team will support projects ITDF is pursuing to continue to develop relationships in the hill tribe villages, including water sanitation projects, construction, medical clinics and children’s ministries. The trip will be formed around the needs of the long-term team serving there and the skills of the short-term team going. Open to families, adults, and students, this experience is perfect for anyone who enjoys backpacking, camping, and hands-on service. Come see what God is doing among the hill tribes of Thailand—you won’t want to miss it!
