VOLUNTEER SERVICE TEAMS
Kids Alive Service Teams are designed for people who are looking for a life-changing experience, have a desire to help children, and want to experience their faith in Jesus Christ on a whole new level!
Service Teams usually number between five and twenty participants, are formed out of a church, civic organization or family, and serve on one of our fields for one or two weeks. As a Service Team Volunteer, you'll travel with your Team to one or more of Kids Alive ministry locations – Residential Children's Home, Care Center, School or Clinic. A Team usually works together to accomplish a specific goal, such as leading a children's program or doing construction improvements on a home – depending on the Team's skills. Kids Alive sends seventy to eighty teams to our fields annually.
Whether sharing the Good News of God's love with kids in a Summer Program, painting a new classroom, helping build a new Children’s Home, or using your medical training in a clinic – you can be sure a Kids Alive Service Team will provide you with the experience of a lifetime!

Total cost for each member of a Service Team depends on the location the Team serves, the length of stay, and the type of project, but generally range between $770 and $1085 per person (plus airfare). This amount includes all project costs, food, lodging, local travel and a ministry donation. Add-on trips for sightseeing can be arranged for an additional cost.
