Hello all aspiring Work Trippers
(and parents and grandparent of Work Trippers)
June 17-21

I'm really looking forward to the 2019 Work Trip. Flint is a place in the U.S. that is worthy and needful of a Work Trip. The kind of place that has the sort of endemic poverty and societal decay that people fly to foreign countries to encounter. (Of course we could find pockets like this in Chicago as well, just up the road in fact, but taking a road trip is so fun!)

Having a trustworthy partner for the Work Trip in The Firestone Center will help ensure that this will be a safe and fun trip. We will be taking our own water and will be guided by people that know the communities of Flint very well.

Next Wednesday I'm submitting our final number to Firestone Center where we will be staying. Firestone is also the organization that will be organizing the work that we do in Flint. It's a one stop shop Catholic Mission Center for the city of Flint. The Firestone Center is located across the street from the University of Michigan Flint.

Firestone Center in their own words
The Firestone Center offers a full service mission program, connecting students, families, and researchers to volunteerism and influential members of the community, while also providing food, lodging and custom programming. Guests will make an impact by mentoring students in inner city schools, providing services to the structurally unemployed, revitalizing neighborhoods and building and repairing housing.
