Impact Trips: Experience Operation Blessing In The Field! Impact Trips are 8 day trips that are designed to give our volunteers a true taste of what Operation Blessing does around the world to alleviate human suffering through hunger relief, disaster relief and more! By devoting 8 days of your life through service, your eyes will be opened to the suffering people are going through right here at home and abroad but the best part is you will have the opportunity to be part of the life-changing hope Operation Blessing brings to these residents and communities. The cost of the trip includes all of your accommodations, such as housing, food, travel while there, and more. We only have space for 30 Impact Team volunteers on each trip so don’t miss your chance to be part of this incredible opportunity!
