While all of our dental mission trips are family-friendly, these clinics are designated as *Family Focused* to intentionally foster opportunities to volunteer as a family and with other families. We invite families with children 13+ to join us and experience the joy of giving back and traveling with a purpose! At times we are able to accept children younger than 13 years old with a prior conversation over the phone.

Physical Demands
Volunteer dental clinics are fast paced and include a moderate amount of physical activity each day. On our Cambodia dental service trip, you will need to:
- Be able to stand and/or walk (including climbing stairs) for approximately two hours at a time during sightseeing tours.
- Sleep with light street noise (dogs, car horns, etc.).
- After orientation, be able to locate restaurants, ATMs, etc.
- Tolerate hot temperatures and indoor spaces without air conditioning. The average temperature in Siem Reap is often above 90 degrees. The climate is also fairly humid. The clinic does not have air conditioning — you will be hot, sweaty and uncomfortable at times in the clinic.
