Service Trips
Hands-on Learning.
The best way to learn from service is to serve. The Building Bridges Series is an ongoing and diverse set of supervised global volunteer experiences, integrated with internet-based instruction, to ensure that you learn while you serve. Each Building Bridges experience is designed to help us grow as global citizens and professionals.
A Building Bridges Experience
- Is a short-term, hands-on, global volunteer opportunity
- Is tailored for a specific life stage or personal/professional interest
- Includes online learning to ensure you prepare for, and benefit from, your volunteer experience
- Provides a variety of service opportunities to enhance your experience
- Works with in-country partners to ensure health, safety, and relevance
