Mission Of Hope Trip 2018
Eagles players traveled to Haiti with Mission of Hope in April. Take a look at all the photos from their trip.
In April, Eagles players traveled to Haiti.
They went with Mission of Hope Haiti, an organization that aims to bring life transformation to every man, woman, and child in Haiti.
QB Carson Wentz also went to Haiti with Mission of Hope in 2017.
The players took part in different activities during the trip.
By partnering with local churches and indigenous organizations throughout Haiti, Mission of Hope feeds over 91,000 children daily.
The players, including WR Rashard Davis, helped paint a house in one of the villages.
The painted house helped transform the entire community.

The group also attended a sports clinic with the kids.
TE Zach Ertz and the rest of the group later went to the building site of a future sports complex to help with Phase 1 of construction.
The 60-acre sports complex will host sports leagues for 15,000 kids annually.
It will also provide programs focused on character development, education, and discipline.
The sports complex will have 10 soccer fields, basketball courts, a community park, and more.
Phase 1 of construction is expected to be completed in the fall of 2018.
