Our volunteer Global Outreach Trips are the “hands and feet” that get to go and see what God has purposed to do through Kids Around the World come to fruition — whether it is by giving kids the gift of play with a beautiful playground, providing nutritious meals, or sharing God’s story of His love for them.

Background check is required. Space is limited!
Special Notice: We want to acknowledge the ongoing reports of conflict and military action in Ecuador. We are closely monitoring the situation through official government advisories, local contacts, and our in-country partners. At this time, our mission trip plans are still moving forward as scheduled. The safety and well-being of our team remain our highest priority. We are in active communication with trusted partners on the ground and will continue to evaluate conditions daily. Should circumstances change in a way that affects travel safety, we are prepared to adjust our plans accordingly. We ask for your continued prayers for peace, stability, and protection for the people of Ecuador, as well as for wisdom as we make ongoing decisions regarding our trip. Please feel free to reach out with any questions or concerns. (As of March 4, 2026)
