WE’RE ALWAYS LOOKING TO IMPROVE! In an effort to reduce our carbon footprint, we have redesigned our catalog for this year. You will notice that it is smaller and has fewer pages. We’ve put our more detailed itineraries online - along with tons of photos, videos, and trip journals (daily travel diaries) by students and leaders. We have stopped using envelopes and did not include a letterhead insert this year. We have also used recycled paper in making this catalog. Our trip leaders even participate in a carbon offsetting program to lessen the impact of their travel on the environment. Please help us to engage in more sustainable travel by visiting www.globalworkstravel.com to view more information about us, enroll, and access your travel program details.

A Note from Our Director The Global Works Experience How to Choose a Program Service Learning Opportunities

A NOTE FROM OUR DIRECTOR Dear Parents, Students, and Alumni, We are excited to present you with our 2014 Summer Service Adventure catalog! For more than 24 years, Global Works has been providing empowering, community service-based, adventure travel programs for high school students. We feel that the following quote by Gandhi says it best: “The best way to find yourself is to lose yourself in the service of others.” Global Works aims to provide more authentic travel through a safe, secure, and seamlessly planned experience. Our focus is on educating global citizens and our trips are ultimately about personal growth — we encourage students to step outside of their comfort zone and expand what they thought was possible and who they thought they were. Global Works programs strive to provide a larger purpose and a deeper meaning in our students’ lives.

We believe that students who participate in our international servicelearning trips become more aware of social and cultural issues and return home as more engaged citizens. Meaningful community service has always provided the ‘bridge’ or ‘purpose’ for us to engage with local communities. We also believe that language learning can be most impactful when lessons are experiential and interactive. For some students, growth might begin during adventure activities — rafting down the Pacuare River in Costa Rica or participating in a challenging ropes course in France. For others, it might occur during the homestay — practicing new words in a foreign language and taking a chance by communicating through trial and error. Some students may feel most inspired during their community service — giving back to families who have so little, yet are so happy. Whether participants travel on one of our language immersion, cultural exchange, or focus programs, each trip provides the opportunity to develop self-knowledge, build confidence, and expand world views. Students learn to be responsible travelers and connect with their peers and new cultures.

This past year, I was very moved by one of our student’s reflections during her trip to Botswana and I’d like to share it with you: “It is impossible to describe the tremendous beauty that we were fortunate enough to see. We would desperately try to capture the image with our Canons and Nikons, but realized soon enough our futility. Pink, lavender, orange, yellow, and other colors sprayed out in hundreds of hues as the glowing red ball sunk below the horizon….Despite the blinding beauty, I had a thought that I shared with everyone else back in camp. I wished my parents were there. I wished my mom and my dad could see and experience what I was seeing. I wished I could lift the scene before my eyes with my hands and bring it back to show it to them. And then I was thankful that my parents had given me the chance to see it in the first place. The lot of us agreed that we were blessed to have parents like ours that let us see something so wonderful.” We truly believe that travel has the power to change lives, especially when we are able to connect with local communities — whether those villages are high in the mountains of Spain or next to the beach on an island in Fiji. We hope that you will join us this summer on one of our life-changing journeys! Travel with purpose,

Erik Werner

SERVICE LEARNING OPPORTUNITIES IN PARTNERSHIP WITH COMMUNITY MEMBERS AND ORGANIZATIONS, WE PROVIDE A GRASSROOTS EXPERIENCE THAT MAKES AN IMPACT ON BOTH OUR STUDENTS AND OUR PARTNER COMMUNITIES IN THE FOLLOWING SPECIALIZED AREAS:

GLOBAL WORKS SERVICE PROJECT CATEGORIES Global Works establishes relationships with youth groups, local organizations, and community-based committees which strive to foster youth leadership, and/or increased overall community involvement. Some projects may be construction-based in their implementation; but, upon their completion, will serve to enhance community cohesion as well as provide an area for local youth to recreate. Previous projects have included: planning and implementing community field days, historical site restoration, community center construction, and playground building. Education

Education is a broad category and can be extended to classroom support and instruction as well as infrastructure projects that serve to benefit students and enhance academic institutions. Previous projects have included: working with local teachers to teach English, building an additional classroom, computer laboratory, or library, as well as planning and hosting educational activities days.

Environmental

Partnerships with national parks, grassroots community organizations, local schools, and conservation agencies provide avenues for Global Works participants to protect and conserve the natural environment. Previous projects have included: removal of invasive plant species, responsible trail construction and maintenance, beach revitalization, recycling programs, reforestation projects, and the enhancement of infrastructure installments within national parks and wildlife preserves. Additional projects may include: the construction of greenhouses and school gardens that serve to supplement local diets with fresh fruits and vegetables.

Public Health

Partner with communities, government agencies, and non-government organizations on projects and initiatives that target the improvement of health at the local level. Previous projects have included: door-to-door campaigns to educate communities on disease prevention, lessons on dental hygiene and nutrition, building of wash stations, construction of solar stoves, and completion of a community water project (providing clean water to 60+ local families).

Wildlife Care & Conservation

Students work with national parks and local wildlife conservation groups to protect vital habitat and threatened wildlife populations in diverse regions around the globe. Previous projects have included: assisting in wildlife rehabilitation and reintroduction centers, providing handson animal care, conducting wildlife research, and participating in the revitalization of vulnerable wildlife habitats.

OUR ROOTS Global Works was founded in 1990 by Pam and James “Biff� Houldin. After dedicating more than two decades to enriching the lives of young adults through teaching, providing horseback riding programs for physically challenged youth, and running Stone Mountain Adventures (a summer camp at their family farm in Central Pennsylvania), the Houldins dreamed of something more. Pam and Biff envisioned an international program that combined community service and adventure travel as a way to give back to the world.

27

Biff chose Puerto Rico as the destination for the first four-week service program. In an unfortunate coincidence, Hurricane Hugo

2 0 14 S um m er Ser v i c e A d v en t u r es | OUR ROOT S

devastated much of Puerto Rico that September. Amidst the devastation, Biff realized that meaningful service and cultural exchange might be achieved through the reconstruction of homes after this terrible storm. In the summer of 1990, 25 students and five staff embarked for Puerto Rico under the name Caribbean Adventures. After two successful summers in Puerto Rico, Biff expanded to British Columbia in 1992, changing the name of his brainchild to Global Works. Since then, Global Works has steadily expanded to other destinations around the globe. The small office at the Houldin family farm has grown into a close-knit staff based in Boulder, Colorado. We hope to share our passion for travel, teaching, and the search for a profound travel experience with you!

Clark University, M.A. Teaching Clark University, B.A Psychology About:

Jake is American, yet he was possibly French or Hungarian in a previous life. A top-notch fan of French culture and language, he has spent one-fifth of his life in Europe, three years of which were in France. Jake recently moved back to the U.S. Previously, he taught English at the University level in France and was often seen drinking espresso in Parisian cafés, biking around Provence, or picnicking like a pro along the Saone river in Lyon. He also led group tours around France for two years. He led his first Global Works program two years ago and acted as our France Country Director last year. He enjoys participating in a program where students have time to explore the country and, most importantly, connect with its people.

Katie’s passion for other cultures, volunteer work, and travel have led her to live in Britain, France, China, Mexico, Guatemala, Puerto Rico, and Costa Rica as well as travel to over 50 countries. Katie is from Santa Cruz, California, although she seldom finds herself there. She received her bachelor’s degree in Community Studies when she was 18 years old from UC Santa Cruz and later earned a Masters of Social Work from San Jose State. Katie has led eleven unforgettable years of Global Works trips in Puerto Rico, Costa Rica, Peru, Ecuador and Guatemala. When Katie is not working for Global Works, she is fully committed as the Executive Director of Limitless Horizons Ixil (LHI), a Guatemalan NGO she founded in 2004 to create sustainable development and provide educational opportunities to the highly impoverished Mayan town of Chajul. In free moments from work, Katie sneaks out to salsa dance in whichever country she happens to find herself. Liz Wilmers, Trip Leader: Nicaragua and New Zealand/Fiji Education:

FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS HOW OLD ARE GLOBAL WORKS PARTICIPANTS?

WHAT DOES THE AIRPORT CHAPERONE SERVICE INCLUDE?

Participants on all Global Works programs are 14–18 years of age. Eighth graders entering ninth grade and graduating seniors are welcome to enroll.

This $80 service includes reserving flights and providing updates for flight schedule changes, staff chaperoned flights and airport supervision on international flights to and from a designated departure city in the U.S. (with the exception of Puerto Rico), assistance at the group flight check-in counter at the departure airport, assistance in re-booking in case of flight delays and/or cancellations, hotel and travel expenses in case of flight delays and/or cancellations, supervision by a trained Global Works staff member in case of flight delays and/or cancellations, access to all flight records, investigation of lost luggage, choosing seat assignments and/or meal preferences, and potential to receive airline credit in case of cancellation of the international group flight.

The total number of service hours may vary from 15–70 hours, depending on the length of your program, your program location, and variables beyond our control, such as weather. Generally, trips earn 10– 20 hours per week. After your program ends, you receive a 'Certificate of Service' which includes the number of service hours you completed and a detailed description of the tasks and projects accomplished.

CAN I BRING MY PHONE ON MY TRIP? Global Works collects phones and internet capable devices upon arrival to your destination. If you choose to bring a phone, you may use it on your initial and return travel days. However, leaders collect your phone during the program. We do this for the purpose of maintaining group cohesion and focusing on the goals of our program. Students are encouraged to call home using phone cards at their convenience and students can always be reached through our Home Office.

MAY I CALL HOME DURING THE TRIP? Yes, we encourage you to call home! Program leaders ask all students to call home upon arrival. Students will receive communication instructions during orientation. Many locations have public phones so students may call home regularly using phone cards. Emergency communication is always available via the leaders’ cell or satellite phones. Additionally, the home office has 24-hour availability for parents.

DOES GLOBAL WORKS PROVIDE CHAPERONED GROUP FLIGHTS? Yes! While it is permissible to purchase your own flights, we strongly recommend that students fly together on our group reservations, whenever possible. For all participants who reserve travel on the Global Works Group Flight, there is a mandatory $80 Airport Chaperone Service. If you do purchase your flights independently, we require that you provide Global Works with all of your flight information at least eight weeks prior to departure and one of our leaders will be in-country to meet the student, upon arrival. If you would like to purchase our Airport Chaperone Service separately, the cost is $80.

31

HOW ARE STUDENTS SUPERVISED? On a daily basis, leaders review safety protocols when they brief the group on the upcoming activities, cultural expectations, and procedures. Global Works students are not permitted to travel alone in a public setting: “Go in Groups of Three!” is a typically heard instruction from leaders and students always know how to get in contact with their leaders.

WHAT ARE GLOBAL WORKS’ HEALTH AND SAFETY PROTOCOLS? Since our inception in 1990, health and safety have been our first and foremost criteria in choosing our travel locations. We take a preventative approach to minimize the inherent risks of travel, avoiding areas that do not meet our standards. Global Works chooses the program destination and locations within each country that we travel to based on a number of criteria including, but not limited to: state department warnings, health risks, safe drinking water, and healthy food. First aid kits are on all programs and leaders are minimally certified in First Aid and CPR. We have an Emergency Action Plan detailing medical care and evacuation plans for each location. Each location is visited and scouted prior to the trip by trip leaders to ensure a positive, safe, and healthy experience for our participants. All details, from transportation and accommodations to activities and service projects, are planned prior to the participants stepping foot in the country. Our Home Office staff and leaders continue to attend risk management conferences, medical trainings, and our risk management systems and training programs are seen as a model for the industry. We would be happy to talk with you further about our Emergency Action Plans and safety measures for each program. VISIT OUR GLOBAL WORKS WEBSITE TO READ OTHER FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS.

HOW MUCH TIME IS SPENT ON SERVICE PROJECTS AND DO WE RECEIVE DOCUMENTATION FOR THE HOURS WE COMPLETE?

LANGUAGE IMMERSION WE BELIEVE THAT THE MOST EFFECTIVE WAY FOR STUDENTS TO ACQUIRE ANOTHER LANGUAGE IS THROUGH MEANINGFUL, AUTHENTIC INTERACTIONS VIA HOMESTAYS, INFORMAL INSTRUCTION, SERVICE PROJECTS, AND EXPERIENTIAL LANGUAGE LEARNING ACTIVITIES. Global Works Language Immersion programs foster engaging, supportive environments and provide valuable tools for any level of language learning. The activities on a Global Works language immersion program are designed to be vehicles for language practice and cultural exchange. Our philosophy emphasizes community building, global citizenship, real world language learning, and reflection.

Global Works implements structured language immersion plans that combine language competency evaluations at the beginning and end of every program and then utilizes specific language activities, tools, and practical applications to improve language ability. Some language activities are optional (such as “singing a song”), LANGUAGE IMMERSION PROGRAMS INCLUDE

• Language Goals and Group Language Contract • Leader-Led Entrance and Exit Interviews in the target language • Fun language tasks, including: ordering food, interviewing locals, exchanging money, shopping, and participating in scavenger hunts • Opportunities to communicate in real-life settings with native speakers of the target language • Homestays with a non-English speaking host family • Certificate of Language Immersion upon successful completion of the program

WWW.GLOBALWORKSTRAVEL.COM 303.545.2202

while others are required (such as the entrance/exit interviews and the language pledge). Leaders facilitate language learning activities throughout the trip.

THE HOMESTAY EXPERIENCE WHILE HOMESTAYS CAN BE A SOURCE OF APPREHENSION FOR STUDENTS, THEY ARE USUALLY THE MOST REWARDING PART OF OUR TRIPS! We have designed the homestay to be very student-friendly. Homestays typically include two students per home with optional single stays available. You will not be isolated with group during most days to work on projects or head out on adventures. Also, you will always know where the trip leaders are and how to reach them. Many evenings, you will find yourself getting together with other students, leaders, and families to participate in various social activities. A homestay experience is a valuable opportunity to improve your language skills by immersing yourself in a situation where communication in French or Spanish (depending on your program country) is a must! You will be with a family that does not speak much, if any, English. During the day, you will work on service projects with the rest of your group. On weekends, you will spend a majority of the time with your host family doing activities that they enjoy sharing with you. While there is no ‘typical’ homestay experience, many students will stay in touch with their families for years to come.

HOMESTAY FAQs HOW DOES GLOBAL WORKS CHOOSE THE HOMESTAY COMMUNITY AND HOST FAMILIES? Global Works has been committed to providing secure and meaningful homestay experiences for the past 24 years. Homestay families are carefully selected through a standardized process of interviews, home visits, contractual agreements, and careful consideration. Safety is our primary consideration when selecting communities and families. We search for families who have the desire to partner with our groups in service work and cultural exchange. Additionally, families must have a private room for the student(s). Most families live in simple homes and they are committed to providing a caring, secure environment for our participants. Our communities are typically rural and feature a strong community spirit. HOW AM I PLACED WITH MY HOMESTAY FAMILY? There are a number of factors that go into deciding the best placements for homestay families and Global Works trip leaders determine the best match possible. We match participants based on a number of criteria that students provide via our Homestay Information Form, including (but not limited to): allergies, diet, language proficiency, age, and personal preference. We do consider students' wishes as far as having children in the home, pets, etc., but we cannot always guarantee that this will be available. Most students stay in paired homestays. However, we do offer students the option for an individual homestay, if requested. Our first priority is to place each participant with a reputable, responsible, and warm family who has an authentic interest in cultural exchange.
