Meanwhile , community members assembled the new playground . This is the third playground that dōTERRA has donated to local Bulgarian community centers . Beyond the playground , Wellness Advocates volunteered for a day at the Milk Canteen , an organisation that provides meals to families with children between the ages of one to three at a subsidised cost with help from dōTERRA . Workers there estimate that they serve between 500 – 1000 children a day . The experience then finished off with dinner made by young people at the nonprofit organisation , the Social Teahouse , which the dōTERRA Healing Hands Foundation helped refurbish in early 2016 . The Social Teahouse works to help orphaned children learn personal and professional skills that help them leave the orphanages with access to the labour market .

Making it Possible

The volunteers took some time to go to the Bulgarian Esseterre Distillery , the operation that makes all the efforts to build up Bulgaria through industry and humanitarian projects possible . The distillery currently produces Lavender , Melissa , and Frankincense essential oils for dōTERRA .
Sarah Wimmer , a Wellness Advocate from Arizona , says of her experience , “ It is amazing to see the whole process of creating an oil , and the care and precision that goes into each step of the process . From the field to the lab , dōTERRA has set a high expectation and standards of excellence that will only allow for the best of the best to be produced . I am honoured to have been on this trip and to be a part of a company that gives back so much to communities .” doterra . com / 31
