Spring Break is usually a time for college students to relax. Tristan Evans, however, takes this time to dedicate herself to improving communities that extend farther than her college campus. Tristan traveled to Monte Cristi, Dominican Republic for Alternative Spring Break in 2008. She worked with an organization called Orphanage Outreach which provides care and an education to the orphans in the Dominican. “It was a great experience to step into the shoes of the Dominican students and teachers, live a slower paced life, and see how innovative and appreciative they are for what they have," Tristan says. Tristan recently organized a lecture through the Bonner Leaders Program that featured writings from the students at Fraser Elementary. Each child wrote down how they felt about the school closing. | Tristan Evans and friends on the Dominican Republic |
