SYRV offers volunteers, donors and travelers an exciting opportunity to reach out to a rural community in the simplest ways while making a huge difference.  “The integration of the SYRV trip format really enhances ones personal reflection of themselves in relation to those in need shows them the importance and ease of giving back to others. We’ve brought clean water to hundreds of people including the schools. We also just completed the SYRV Jiquilillo community center recently allowing for the villagers congregating and learning computer, sewing skills that will benefit their economy. In addition we offer surf school, art and music classes to the children. We invite you to be a part of the change you’ve always wanted to be a part of.” states SYRV Director & Founder, Monique Evans.
