All About the Journey
Doxa Journeys is a hands on leadership program for teens and young adults in the Scarborough area. We exist to create 'Globally Conscious and Locally Active' young people. For 9 months our teams meet to discuss issues of injustice, cultural diversity, poverty, cooperation, and community action. Together they volunteer in the GTA and fundraise for a 10-14 day service trip to one of our partner locations. Currently our teams travel to the Dominican Republic and a First Nations community in Northern Ontario. Once there, our teams partner with local communities and leaders to learn and serve in whatever ways possible. Upon their return, the team continues to debrief and apply what they have learned in order to make positive changes in their own lives, their communities, and around the globe!
Imagine being so empowered by the chance to make a difference in the lives of others that you begin to believe that there is a purpose for your life and dream big dreams for the future.
Imagine being so inspired by the generous spirit of those in need that you adopt a lifestyle of giving and serving.
Imagine not only believing that there is hope for positive change in your own life, community, and the world, but also being provided the tools required to embrace that change.
Imagine being so impacted by the sobering realities of the wider world around you that you develop a new perspective on your own lives, and a passion to make a difference.
Imagine that these statements were realities in your life! Doxa Journeys believes in that possibility and seeks to witness change in and through you! In many parts of the world people are dying as they wait for change...better health care, proper nutrition, less violence, and more freedom. The reality is that YOU can be a part of bringing about that change!
