I took a trip to Honduras when I was in college and it was one of the most humbling life lessons I've ever had. Long story short.. me and three of my friends went. 2 engineers, 1 premed, and one Ag Ed. 1 Engineer moved to Nicaragua 4 years later and is a full time missionary, after the PreMed got his PhD he moved to Honduras as a full time missionary, and the AgEd teaches kids here and goes overseas during the summer months to help setup community greenhouses, community gardens, etc.

Yes, to get money to pay for these trips from donations and then skim from the top

Mission trips to help in impoverished stress in America is a great thing. There are also many countries on every continent that need help, and would be a great thing. But if you're going to places like western Europe and Costa Rica, it's more about taking a vacation than anything.
I think I'll take a mission trip to Monaco. Caye Caulker may need some help too.
