Global Glimpse is a travel and leadership program thoughtfully designed for juniors in high school. We work to prepare our students intellectually and emotionally for a transformative international experience. Accepted students participate in pre-trip workshops that prepare them to engage in deeper learning during their summer travel programs. We also provide teacher training and short term and long-term follow-on alumni programming to create broader school and community impact.

Global Glimpse is doing something unique… and surprisingly it’s not sending thousands of high school students on transformative travel experiences.  It is WHO these students are that is truly special. Only 1% of US high school students have the opportunity to travel internationally and 85% of those who do have these opportunities are affluent and white. At Global Glimpse we flip the script.

We’re proud to be the only youth travel organization that offers need-based scholarships to all eligible students – more than 80% of participants each year. This approach makes our programs accessible to individuals from all backgrounds, and allows us to intentionally combine students from diverse cultural, racial and socioeconomic backgrounds enabling students to learn as much from each other as they do from the people and places they connect with on their travels.

We are working to make this website easier to access for people with disabilities, and will follow the Web Content Accessibility Guidelines. If you need assistance with our current site, please contact Jhonny Jean, our Web admin to request assistance.
