Events

Each year, Recurso directors organize an international service trip. In the past, diverse groups of passionate students, from engineers to zoology students, have provided direct aid to developing nations in Latin America. Months before the trip itself, members volunteer and work to gather the support, materials and funding necessary to make the trip a success.
