Greetings from Duke University! Circle K, a collegiate community service organization associated with Kiwanis International, and Cultural Convergence International (CCI), a non-profit organization dedicated to strengthening communities through youth athletics, are collaborating for a fourth consecutive year to organize an early summer service trip to an impoverished community in Latin America. This year, we are traveling to El Batey, Dominican Republic, a small group of communities located in the San Juan Province about three hours west of Santo Domingo.
