The Community
Service Component
Our Mission
Our community service component offers teens a summer of self-discovery through volunteering, cultural immersion and interaction with populations in need.
Our mission is to facilitate teens as they evolve through this experiential learning process and provide them with an environment that is conducive to growth, understanding and development.
At 360° Student Travel we know that each individual has something special to offer and wants to give of themselves. We provide the tools, the exposure to people and projects and allow for our tour members to take the reins and show us just how much they can accomplish.
Our Service Partners
We have partnered with established organizations that have a long history of achieving their missions and integrating teen volunteers into their efforts.
We are proud to be working in conjunction with these worthy organizations:
Neighborhood Beautification Project - Flamingo
You will help beautify a low income suburb surrounding Flamingo Beach on the pacific coast.
Costa Rica Humanitarian Foundation
The Costa Rica Humanitarian Foundation (CRHF) focuses on community development through education and preventative healthcare. You will run day camp activities, reading programs for children and partake in construction/repair projects.
Monteverde Cloud Forest Reserve
The Monteverde Cloud Forest Reserve features one of the world’s most acclaimed refuges.
You will plant trees as a way to preserve this delicate environment.
Are You Ready to Become a Volunteer?
Participants should be prepared for our program. Once you are part of a team, you are committing yourself not only to hard work on service days (from 3-6 hours) but also to your fellow volunteers and those we will be assisting. In sharing this rewarding experience, you are guaranteed to form lasting friendships and will no doubt take away much more than you give. You will receive a certificate of completion recognizing 20-36 hours (depending on the number of weeks you choose) of service and listing projects accomplished.
