Global Works - Travel with Purpose's Mission Statement: Since 1990 we've been providing high school students with rewarding service, language learning, and adventure travel programs, which foster personal growth and promote social and cultural awareness for the participant and the communities involved. Much more than a vacation, a Global Works participant will enhance his or her view of the world while having a great time and making a new group of life-long friends. We often hear how participants gain a new appreciation for what they have at home and return with a better understanding of what they want to do in their life.
