Make A Donation

Travel, when done thoughtfully, can positively change the trajectory of a young person’s life. Yet, for far too long the powerful lessons of travel have been inaccessible for the majority of young people in the United States. Global Glimpse is the only youth travel organization that places diversity and equity at the heart of our model. Your generous contribution will directly support scholarships for students from low-income households to see the world and unlock their leadership potential! All donations are tax deductible. Global Glimpse is a registered 501c3.

Lead a trip

Global Glimpse accepts applications from travel-savvy educators to lead some of our immersion programs in the Dominican Republic, Panama and Costa Rica. Global Glimpse covers all program costs for leaders including airfare, accommodation, meals, local transportation, and activities.

Nominate a Student

We’re looking for students who value diversity, are open to learning through challenges, and are committed to personal growth. Our programs offer a unique chance to explore the world with other young leaders, and we especially encourage nominations for students who are underrepresented in travel abroad programs. 

Refer a high school

We are always looking to reach more students and expand to new high schools! Your referral could bring thousands of dollars in travel scholarships to students you care about.
