Overview
This island off the coast of South Carolina is something special. The LeaderTreks base camp is located 2 minutes from the water’s edge. Yet in the middle of this vacation paradise is a broken community. For many years the racial divisions have been ignored as the community has enjoyed a growing and expanding economy. Unfortunately, the only community seeming to benefit from all the growth has been the affluent white community. As Pawley’s has continued to grow and expand so has the division between the white and African-American communities.

During the day your students have will have the chance to work in the African-American community to help foster the healing process. We will be working alongside a ministry based in Pawley’s whose goal is to facilitate reconciliation. This site is designed for groups who want a cross-cultural experience without leaving the United States. Living conditions can be challenging, with the intense sunshine, heat and high humidity. Everyday hot showers are not always available. This site allows groups to concentrate on work, evangelism, or both.
