You will also want to submit your tourist visa application right away to give the Immigration department enough time to process your request.

In loving memory of our good friend, Krystle.

WHAT WILL WE DO ON THIS TRIP?

Each 2-week trip (approximately, some trips vary in length, depending on flight options) will encompass a variety of ministry opportunities, based on the giftings and skill sets of the team members.

Most common activities:

  • Orphanage visits, slum ministry, medical clinics, visiting the elderly
  • Ministering to different groups: children, women, men, teens, etc.
  • Opportunities for hands-on work like construction projects
  • Sightseeing and tourist activities include a 1-day African Safari
  • And adequate rest time to protect your energy.

REQUIREMENTS

BEFORE YOU CAN BE APPROVED TO TRAVEL WITH DANDELION MISSIONS:

all team members MUST:

1) Police Clearance: 
Since we work with many vulnerable people while on mission, we require every person in our team to submit a recent, valid Police Clearance before being approved to travel with us. 

2) Signed Waiver: 
We do our best to carefully plan all activities and outings to be as safe as possible. But we cannot predict every possible situation. And we are not responsible for team members who take it upon themselves to go off on their own.

3) Medical verification of fitness to travel
This is pretty self-explanatory. These trips can be quite physically demanding with lots of walking, stair climbing, and carrying your own luggage, and long periods of standing at times. We need to know you are physically able to keep up with us.

These Young School Children, ages 2-5 years old must walk 5 miles to attend Nursery. This fact grieved Krystle, who loved these children so very much. So, Krystle requested that donations be made in her memory to a fundraiser through REACH International for Child2Youth Foundation in Uganda.
With the generous donations from friends and family of Krystle Botermans, together with our agency partner organization, Child2Youth Foundation in Uganda, we have been able to raise funds to build a Nursery School in Krystle Boterman's Memoriam.
