Global Glimpse

Global Glimpse is a non-profit organization that provides transformative travel and leadership opportunities to high school students from all backgrounds. Since 2008, our award-winning programs have served nearly students + teachers and provided $20M to make travel possible for students from +100 high schools and youth organizations across the United States. Funded by hundreds of individual donors and leading companies, including Expedia Group, Marriott International, Snap Inc, and Leading Hotels of the World, every student attending one of our partner schools is eligible for a sliding-scale scholarship. Once accepted, our students participate in pre-trip workshops that prepare them for a structured 11-day international experience focused on service-learning, cultural immersion, and leadership development in Panama, Costa Rica, or the Dominican Republic. The Global Glimpse program is thoughtfully designed to expand perspectives, bridge divides, and unlock leadership potential so teens can differentiate themselves and change the world, one little bit at a time. We believe that travel is one of the most powerful forms of education. We envision a world where every young person can say “I travel.” Learn more about our programs and opportunities for educators, donors, and partner organizations at globalglimpse.org.
