The town of is nestled between towering boulders and miles of scrub brush. This mountainous setting is home to many needy families, but it is often overlooked for help because of its size and location. Thousands come to Tecate with the hope of finding more opportunities in the US or near the border. Hardworking people find jobs in the tourist or manufacturing sectors, but even then the average salary ranges from only $4-$5 a day, causing many diligent workers to live in abject poverty.

Native Americans have the highest rates of poverty, unemployment and disease of any ethnic group in the United States. South Dakota’s Lakota Indian population lives in some of the poorest communities in the US. Rapid City is home to thousands of Lakota Indians who have moved from the Pine Ridge Reservation in search of a better life. Your Mission Discovery short term mission trip team will reach out to many Native American families, but we will not exclude anyone who has a need that we can meet.

Music City USA is a place where hope lives and dies. It's a great place to live, work, and visit, but like all thriving cities, there are people in need. Away from the glitz and glamour of Music Row, 13% of residents live below the poverty line. Nashville's poor are the focus of your week with Mission Discovery. Though a partnership with UCP, Mission Discovery works to build wheelchair ramps for residents earning less than $15,000 annually. For many it's their first shot in a very long time at personal freedom.
