Welcome to the land of the Midnight Sun!

Josh had a fantastic experience in Alaska, so good he didn't want to come back! We can't thank you enough for helping him experience this wonderful place in a way that people rarely get- hands on, helping others, and learning to care about others. Thanks!

Some call it the Land of the Midnight Sun, others the Last Frontier – you will call it your adventure of a lifetime! We visit the mountainous South Central area. Alaska offers a stark contrast – rich in beauty and natural resources yet poverty abounds – there is much we can do.
