Service In Action

A passion for improving the future of our world is just one of the things that makes People to People Ambassador Programs one of the world’s premier education travel providers. It’s also why we build community service into each and every student program.

Ambassadors earn terrific insights into other cultures through these hands-on service projects, whether it’s cutting peat to keep Ireland’s elderly warm, replanting a forest in Fiji, sending care packages to U.S. soldiers, or sharing smiles and games at a special-education school in China. Our accredited travel-study school even ensures that students take home service-learning credit for their efforts.

Best of all, these life-changing experiences help develop young people as global citizens—confident, capable, and compassionate.

Shaping through service

Ambassadors on our special service-intensive international trips earn unique rewards:

• Firsthand insights into another culture, its strengths and challenges
• Proof of the power of teamwork
• Friendships cemented by a shared purpose
• Experience communicating and cooperating across cultural barriers
• Confidence in their ability to offer service of lasting value, regardless of their age or skills

These learnings represent important steps in a global citizen’s development. After students have started to change their world with an education travel program, they return home inspired and motivated to continue to do a world of good.
