What people are saying about the REAL. LIFE. Exhibit.

What educators are saying:

“The REAL. LIFE. Exhibit touches the soul! It says to students, 'You can make a difference.' That is a powerful message for those who struggle to find meaning in their education and direction in their lives.” school superintendent

“One of my goals as an educator is to develop compassion in my students. When my middle school students arrived at the exhibit, they were typical rowdy adolescents. But within minutes of arriving, they sobered. In their follow-up writing assignments, several expressed a desire to choose careers that would help people in the world. I can’t think of a better outcome.” — middle school teacher

“I can't imagine our curriculum without the REAL. LIFE. Exhibit. Our nursing students are changed by going through the exhibit—not only as future nurses who may have an impact on global healthcare but also as people and members of our global community.” —  nursing instructor

What church leaders are saying:

“I took my youth group through the REAL. LIFE. Exhibit, and it was so powerful, real, and life-changing. The experience altered how we see the world now. The whole weekend was a mission trip for the kids, and your exhibit was their favorite part." — church youth-group leader

"I recently brought students.as part of a week-long mission trip….We had high expectations for our time at the exhibit, and they were truly exceeded. The students were so moved by what they saw and learned. Please find a check enclosed. . . .  You have helped change the course of 24 young lives." — pastor  

What students are saying:

“Walking through the REAL. LIFE. Exhibit really touched me more than any textbook or movie would. I took in more than expected and left with more than I could imagine.... The blinking light moved me the most. Thinking that the light would still be blinking even after we were long gone made my stomach turn. I felt that I had to do something to change it. ” — Ashley  

“Visiting the REAL. LIFE. Exhibit was one of the most worthwhile, eye-opening experiences that I have ever had. Now that I've seen what's happening in the world, I'm ready to go and help others.” — Nick 

“I did not know that people suffered so much in the world. Learning about people dying of hunger, illness, and diseases in poorer countries gave me a different perspective on life.... The REAL. LIFE. Exhibit inspired me to go out and do something to help people.... It is the most inspiring, moving, amazing, and encouraging exhibit I have ever seen. Without a doubt, I was determined, motivated, and dedicated to make a difference. I may not save everybody, but I can save one person at a time!” — Danica
