In the summer of 2019, I visited the students in rural Concepcion, Paraguay, that were being supported by the Coins for Kids program created by Youth Volunteers Organization (YVO). With my mom, 7th-grade YVO member Jacob Kim, and his mother, we took the three students in Paraguay and took them to Asuncion, a city.
