School the World: Transform Lives in Central America!

About Program
Want to travel to Central America? Want to transform lives? Join us this year! Travel to Guatemala, Panama, or Honduras for one week with a group of like-minded high school students to help build a school and improve international education. You will make new friends, be immersed in a new culture, and form lasting relationships with local children and families. Don't miss this experience of a lifetime!
Each group that travels funds and participates in the final construction phase of a new school building and/or playground during their journey of discovery. Students spend the majority of their week in a rural community in Panama, Guatemala, or Honduras, working on the project and interacting with the children, their parents and the teachers as they form strong bonds through mutual learning. We also believe cultural exposure and understanding is an important part of our program. During their trip, students experience the beauty of Central American culture.
