“While many organizations claim that they value diversity, Legacy of Healing embodies it.<\/h3>

\u00a0<\/h3>

You don’t have to be a doctor or a nurse to add value to a mission team; you just need to have a passion about our values, which ultimately boil down to helping others.<\/h3>

\u00a0<\/h3>

Legacy\u00a0team members come from a plethora of different religions (or no religion), ethnic backgrounds, cultures, occupations, ages, personality types, sexual orientations and many other different life paths.<\/h3>

\u00a0<\/h3>

We are united by our passion for helping others and developing ourselves through service. Our efforts are optimized by the diversity of the individuals that harbor such passion. That’s what makes being a Legacy team member such a privilege.”<\/h3>

\u00a0<\/h3>

We don’t mean to brag, but we’re almost positive that you’ll have a better time with\u00a0Legacy<\/em> than any other summer vacation. Not only will you have a life changing experience, but you’ll have more fun too.\u00a0<\/span><\/h3>

\u00a0<\/h3>

There are many roles to fill on a\u00a0Legacy\u00a0<\/em>trip, but before you check them out, you definitely should review the Venn diagram of our values to the right. These are the DNA of\u00a0Legacy of Healing.<\/em><\/h3>

\u00a0<\/p>

You could be a world-class surgeon, but if your values don’t align with any location on that graphic,\u00a0Legacy\u00a0<\/em>probably isn’t the place for you.\u00a0<\/h3>

Legacy\u00a0<\/em>volunteers perform a wide variety of tasks and often wear multiple hats on a mission trip.\u00a0<\/h3>

\u00a0<\/p>

A volunteer’s specific duties will depend on his or her skills, preferences and the unique needs of the communities that\u00a0Legacy\u00a0<\/em>serves.<\/h3>
