About Program
We strive to provide diverse, affordable, meaningful, and ethical global service-learning opportunities. Through professional and personalized support, our goal is for each participant to meet our learning objectives of personal growth, intercultural competency, academic application, and civic engagement.
While service-learning in The Pacific, learn about Maori culture during traditional ceremonies and meals, journey through Hobbiton and Rotorua’s unique geothermal landscape (Fall), or experience Fiordland National Park and Milford Sound (Spring) which some call the eighth wonder of the world.
We are dedicated to developing ethical and sustainable service-learning programs with the intention of forming mutually beneficial relationships while making a positive impact on the communities we serve. In bringing unique people and cultures together, we aim to promote an understanding of global issues.
