The impact



By joining us on this special trip, co-led by Doug Messer, you will be supporting an incredibly special place.

The Hope and Peace Center is a wonderful community center that serves as a safe haven for women and children to play and relax. We can't overstate how important this center is for the hundreds, sometimes thousands, of people that visit the center - a happy break from incredibly difficult circumstances.

Your contribution will be impactful and sustainable, it will benefit the island and the community long after your return home.

The activities


​Throughout this trip, you'll be immersed in Lesvos culture - wandering through small villages, spending time with local business and restaurant owners and eating many of the local favorites.

We'll also be spending time at the Hope and Peace Center, of course!


If you'd like to mix in a little more chill, you'll be free to separate from the group at any time. Lesvos is safe and easy to get around, with plenty of beaches and cafes to enjoy. There will also be optional yoga class available each morning.

The island


​Lesvos is a Greek island in the northern Aegean Sea, just off the coast of Turkey,
 famous for its clear blue waters and green hills.

You'll find those hills dotted with ancient olive trees (there are over 11 million on the island!) and beautiful stone homes capped with red roofs.


Living in those homes are some of the kindest people we've ever met. You'll always find them among friends, sipping Greek frappe's in the morning and laughing over Ouzo in the evening.

The island owns a rich history (even by Greek standards). Ancient Roman aqueducts, Byzantine castles and Greek-Orthodox churches are all there for us to explore.
