  • About Lauren

    I made my first trip to Kenya in 2022 with a medical outreach team (Which is led by my two incredible parents!).

    My second trip to Kenya in 2023 with the same outreach team extended from 1 week to six weeks on campus doing art with the kids!

    After that, everything fell into place for me to sign on as a Missioner working with the kiddos to do art + art therapy, and I have been spending 6-8 months on campus ever since!
