Volleyball Seeking Donations for Nicaragua Trip
3/31/2017 3:18:00 PM | Women's Volleyball
The University of Northern Iowa volleyball team is taking its foreign trip to Nicaragua in May 2017.
The program works to fundraise for a trip every four years. The days will consist of playing volleyball, experiencing Nicaragua and doing mission work. An extra component of this trip that is different than in the past is the opportunity to give back. The team will be volunteering at Manos Unidas (cooperative for people with disabilities), Escuela Adelante (preschool) and local schools. The Panthers will also host a youth volleyball clinic.
