I just returned from theDominican Republic. I wanted to write to tell you ALL thank you so much for everything! Thank you for the partial scholarship that made the trip a possibility. Thank you for the wonderful opportunity Guanin Center provided for me to become a better leader, to improve my Spanish, and most importantly to work with the most BEAUTIFUL children I have ever encountered! I lived with a great host family, and it was so difficult to leave them after just a month! I miss them so much this morning! My peer group was amazing, and I believe I made friendships that will last a lifetime. I hope I will be fortunate enough to work with them again in the future! Everyone related to the Guanin Center experience was so nice and made the trip an experience. I really hardly recommend this organization to any of my friend or colleague
