Global Village trips give participants a unique opportunity to become active partners with people of other cultures. Team members work alongside members of the host community, raising awareness of the burden of poverty housing and building decent, affordable housing worldwide.

Global Village teams bring invaluable support to the communities they visit. Their concentrated people power and enthusiasm give homeowners a real boost.  A Global Village trip can be a life-changing experience. It’s an opportunity to gain a greater understanding of development issues, to learn more about another culture and about yourself. 

You will be more than a tourist. You will be welcomed into the community by your hosts and introduced to the local culture as a guest. You will work and laugh together, share stories, make friends. As you let go of many of the comforts of home you start to focus on things that really matter.
