Lead A Global Glimpse Trip

Want to volunteer to help young leaders gain skills and motivation to create positive change in the world?

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.

Trip leaders must have a background working with youth and with leadership development. These leaders must also be based where our programs are, the SF Bay Area, Chicago, Los Angeles, New York, or Western Massachusetts so that they can attend an interview, a pre-trip training, and travel with the students from the departure airport.

Personal & Professional Growth

“I have changed as a teacher, I have changed as a person. My connection to my community and to the students I serve is so much stronger. I believe in myself more. I believe in the impact that I can have on kids and therefore, on the world. Global Glimpse has really transformed the way I view myself as an educator.”
