A ZOE Trip will provide you with the experience of a lifetime! You will meet the in-country staff members and the incredible young people who are being empowered to move beyond charity. You will see and experience how the ZOE model is changing lives socially, economically, and spiritually.
On a trip, you will visit with and learn from young people who are engaged in each stage of the ZOE program. You will have an opportunity to be a guest in their homes. You will see how the relationships they have with fellow group members are providing them with an extended family within their communities. You will witness firsthand how their group projects and businesses are helping them to thrive in the midst of adversity. And you will even get a taste of the local culture through a tourism experience that is unique to the country you visit.
When traveling with ZOE, you will encounter heartache and joy, tears and laughter, desperation and dancing, sadness and singing — and you will return home with renewed hope as you are inspired by the stories of the young people who are moving from poverty to self-sustainability.
Note: If you are a current Empowerment Group Partner (formerly known as a ‘Hope Companion Partner’), you will have the opportunity to visit the group(s) you support.

ZOE taught Maggie about her land inheritance rights and helped her regain ownership of her property. She has learned the power of sharing her blessings and now employs a widow to help farm the land. She also raises pigs, chickens and rabbits. With supplies from ZOE and help from her working group, Maggie constructed a new home. By the end of her second year, she had three businesses: a barbershop, a salon and a grocery stand. This enables her to employ several young people from her community. Her siblings have returned to school and one sister will soon attend university.
