  • Description

    All our trips are balanced differently in regard to how much humanitarian work versus exploring the destination. We offer mini-mission type experiences to working the majority of the time on a trip. For example, in Kenya you will enjoy time on a safari but also immerse yourself in working with street children. In Jordan there are two full days working with abused children but still plenty of time visiting the Dead Sea, exploring Pedra - one of the Seven Wonders of the World, and much more.

  • Highlights

    Highlights of our programs are working with the children in either schools, orphanages, and community centers. However, the unique adventure opportunities that we also add to a program will be exploring in a very unique way.

    A Global Ambassadors for Children volunteer can be of any age. The individuals are usually wanting to travel differently and truly experience the destination and people in a more real way. They are flexible and open to new experiences. We have singles traveling by themselves and couples; high school and college students during spring break trips; families traveling more in the summer. We welcome to customize a group of 15-20 people to any one of our 10 destinations.
