People to People Student Ambassadors

From some of the kids' blogs I've read who've been on the trips, they also do some sort of service project while there.

I know a couple of girls who did it while in high school. ONe did fund-raising by selling custom-made throws...I doubt she raised enough money to cover the cost, but at least she did SOMETHING...the other raised money through a custom-printed cookbook.
The price seemed awfully high to me, especially because they stay with families. But because of that, the trip gives them a lot more interaction with local people. Most of the girls learned a lot from the trip.
And it seemed a lot of girls went...not a lot of boys...
