Designed for

Individual students

This opportunity is for students who are looking for a next-level trip. The location of the trip will be disclosed to you after you apply. This city is very advanced in terms of its technology and economic status.


You'll be working alongside a team of missionaries who are reaching different segments in the city by demographic. The family you'll work directly under is focused on University students.


Most of your time will be spent going to places that University students can be found, building relationships, and sharing the Gospel. Several of the students that previous teams shared the gospel with are now believers and part of a local church.


Safety

At iGo, safety is always a high priority and we take extensive measures to ensure the success of the students on our teams. From registering every student with the embassy, to giving all our leaders training, we do everything in our power to minimize risk and be prepared for any issue that might arise on the field.
