Jump into June 2024 with us! We know May has just begun. It seems odd that we’re going to post a lot about June in the coming weeks, but we’re looking ahead. We want you to join us–and many missionary and other expat families–on our journey to June.
June marks a pivotal time for Interaction International, as we gear up to launch our transformative summer programs tailored for Missionary Kids (MKs) and Third Culture Kids (TCKs) returning from their international lives. These programs play a vital role in easing their transition from global living to American life, fostering deep connections and spiritual growth.
We cross the southern part of the country–from Texas to Georgia–holding cross-cultural transition seminars for teen aged TCKs. Transit Lounge is one of the ways we give direct care to American kids who are growing up globally. Transit Lounge is actually three camps held in the course of the summer. Our Dallas area Transit Lounge starts in June.

Engagement and Expenses Climb while Revenue Declines
We love the work we do in June. We love being in real time with TCKs–and our staff. June is wonderful!
However, June is also the most expensive time of year for us. Our summer programs will cost over $55,000 on top of our regular expenses! That’s a lot.
The bad news is, June is also the month where donations historically slow down.
Expenses up! Donations down! That’s a huge problem. But that’s where you come in.
