Each year READ takes groups down to Ecuador to experience life in rural Ecuador and work on small projects.  We collaborate with the local community to provide comfortable lodging and good food.    Ecuador is a truly beautiful place and we would love to have you come.  Trips are educational and always include sightseeing.  If you are interested in knowing more about our trip this year email Virginia McNair (one of our co-directors) at mcnairginny@yahoo.com and/or visit us on our Rural Education Advancement and Development (READ)Facebook page.
