Fiji
Fiji really is as stunning as it looks in pictures.
You’ll spend time between Nadi on the main island and Taveuni, the Garden Island, with beaches, jungle, waterfalls, reefs, and some of the warmest people you’ll ever meet.
The best part of the trip will be helping with projects that make a big difference in peoples’ lives. We will help rebuild a school cafeteria so children can have a fresh meal each day, dig and lay water pipes for a village school without running water, build piggeries and chicken coops that can provide ongoing income for a local community, and help improve the kitchen, library, and dorms at a boarding school that serves children whose families can’t afford tuition.
And mixed in with all of that: snorkeling the Rainbow Reef, hiking to waterfalls, rugby on the beach with local teens, a traditional lovo feast, a Hindu temple, and swimming with reef sharks.
There is a lot packed into Fiji. A lot of people to know. A lot of ways to help. A lot to experience.
Come learn the good life in Fiji.
why Fiji?
One of the things people love most about RISE is how much the trip changes from day to day. In Fiji, that might mean a boarding school one day, a remote island community the next, then waterfalls, reefs, rugby on the beach with local teens, or a project in a farming village.
It’s fun to wonder which project, person, or moment might end up meaning the most to you.
