A quién Servimos

committed to Diversity & Equity

Desde 2008, hemos atendido a más de 9,000 estudiantes de secundaria de 100 escuelas y organizaciones aliadas en los Estados Unidos.

Global Glimpse is doing something unique… and surprisingly it’s not sending thousands of high school students on transformative travel experiences. It is WHO these students are that is truly special. Only 1% of US high school students have the opportunity to travel internationally and 85% of those who do have these opportunities are affluent and white. At Global Glimpse we flip the script.

We’re proud to be the only youth travel organization that offers need-based scholarships to all eligible students – more than 80% of participants each year. This approach makes our programs accessible to individuals from all backgrounds, and allows us to intentionally combine students from diverse cultural, racial and socioeconomic backgrounds enabling students to learn as much from each other as they do from the people and places they connect with on their travels.

“I became friends with the people on my trip that I would never have met back home. We were all from different backgrounds and have different ideas and cultural differences but we came together as one family and learned to agree and trust each other and it was really a magical thing. I don’t think I can ever get that with another group of people!”

"I can say for sure that the most powerful thing about the program was that our group was so diverse. I'd often ask questions to the other Glimpsers as to how their different cultural backgrounds impact their lives and the responses were always extremely eye-opening and transcended what I initially knew and broke down a lot of my assumptions."

"The relationships I formed are some of the most genuine, honest, and loyal relationships I've found. The friendships that I made on that trip will last a lifetime, and even now I am in contact with all of them. Everybody came from very different backgrounds both family and culturally. We got to know each other without technology, which made everything far more real. All of the friends I have made on the trip have changed me for the better, and I am forever grateful."

"The relationships I created on my trip are irreplaceable and unforgettable. You get to connect with people you may not have reached out to before and with people of many different pasts and backgrounds. It not only taught me about others, but also really taught me so much about myself as a person."

"Every single person I met on my trip was unique in their own way. It was so interesting to be put in a group for two weeks with people who are so different from me, and who come from different cultural, racial, and economic backgrounds. I made so many new friends who are so different from the people I'm normally friends with."
