Puerto Rico  - Pogram Slide show

By clicking on the image to the right you can scroll through a descriptive slide show of the Puerto Rico program.

The accompanying text will give you a brief description of the locations and activities.

For an in depth description of the program please feel free to call us at the home office and we will gladly explain the layout and philosophy of the program as you scroll through the images.

We understand the first step towards a successful summer is making a well-informed decision.

*Please note that some of the projects and activities will change from year to year, however, they will be similar to those listed. A final itinerary will be available prior to each trip.

Let me begin by saying the our daughter, Cory Lopez, had an absolutely fantastic time in Puerto Rico this summer. She loved the counselors, the other kids, Tita and her husband and basically everything else about the trip. It was a tremendously positive experience in every way and we would highly recommend your program to other families.  Most valuable aspects: We especially appreciated having Cory spend time working and living with people who live with far less than she is accustomed to. We were pleasantly surprised to find that Cory did not complain about the absence of luxuries she takes for granted at home (like warm showers and air conditioning) and thrived in the communal setting. She loved working to improve the housing for the people in Villa Sin Miedo and felt tremendous pride in the group's accomplishments. (We hear they mixed and poured 60 bags of cement!) What would I convey to other parents? Just this: My daughter came off the plane saying, "It was the most amazing trip ever.  I want to do another trip with Global Works next summer."  Shelley Levine &  Jerry Lopez

Highly positive experience! ...........involvement/interaction/bonding with cultures and people she would not ordinarily meet, and satisfaction/thrill in making a difference in a community through her work. Of all the community service programs I've researched/heard about, Global Works is the most community-focused program, where the kids truly give back to the community by working and learning. Deanie absolutely loved every aspect of the program: the counselors were amazing, the work was gratifying and the experience like no other she's ever had!  We are so glad we chose Global Works, and please feel free to offer us as a reference.  Debi Hoxter
