DOWNLOAD OUR CORPORATE
VOLUNTEER VACATION BROCHURE
With decades of experience leading groups around the world on short-term volunteer experiences, we create and manage volunteer abroad solutions for groups from 5 to 500 participants. Choose from experiences already created or speak with us to craft and tailor a project to the specific goals of your corporate or foundation group. Globe Aware has no political or religious affiliation and require no specific skillset. We create opportunities for your staff to give back in a significant way, and within a safe setting. These experiences also serve as meaningful team building experiences. All Globe Aware programs are intended to provide a win-win-win:
- The local community is able to better stand on its own two feet
- The participating staff feel uplifted at the real impact they provide
- The participating staff enjoys a greater understanding of diverse culture, global perspectives and appreciation for their own standard of living
- The sponsoring corporation or foundation enjoys higher employee retention, easier recruitment, and enhanced brand imaging
While our programs are short term, our continued and regular presence within the community means we can usually build upon prior projects and ensure that past projects are maintained. We have a diverse portfolio of project offerings, from building classrooms for special needs kids in Mexico, to assembling wheelchairs for landmine victims in Cambodia, installing concrete floors in the homes of single mothers in Guatemala, building a community center for the marginalized Roma in Romania.
