Xavier Carlile
Xavier Carlile, a graduate from St Aloysius College in Sydney, Australia.
Along with 11 other volunteers, he took the incredible opportunity offered by the Cardoner Network to be part of the Cardoner Volunteer Corps (CVC), volunteering in Northern Thailand this year. The Cardoner Network, based in Australia, offers transformative volunteering opportunities for young adults to be formed in the Jesuit model of love for service and the poor. Xavier and his fellow CVC’s ventured out of their local, rural communities near Chiang Mai, in order to serve at Xavier Learning Community (XLC) in Chiang Rai. In the reflection that follows, Xavier shares his experience volunteering at the camp.
