Meet the Leaders & Learning partners:

Robert Nisby (Trip Leader)
Hello! I am a sophomore from Memphis,TN double majoring in psychology and Business Marketing. When thinking about a theme for our trip, I knew I wanted to focus on something that related to issues regarding diversity or differences amongst common day people. I look forward to serving, laughing, simple living, and sharing a eye-opening experience with all my soon-to-be trip buddies and hopefully establish some common ground in relation to the trip theme.Ultimately, I hope the impact we have on our selected community will create a ripple effect that inspires positive change.

Megan Dishman (Trip Leader)

I would love that this trip would become a catalyst for service in all multiple communities and facets of life.
