We are looking for volunteers that have a passion for travel or has been impacted by the transformative power of travel to assist with helping promote our 'mini gala' or Annual Benefit Dinner scheduled for Friday, October 25th at USC Vineyard and Patio.
Why: Your volunteer participation will help Getaway Growth raise funds to meet the mission of the organization.
Who: As our world becomes increasingly interconnected and we experience an era of unprecedented world challenges, it is imperative for our youth to be aware of how they are interrelated with people in other parts of the world. At Getaway Growth, we believe enriching opportunities such as transformative travel and experiential learning prepare students to develop the nuance and understanding needed for real-world interactions and become global leaders of tomorrow. Too often underrepresented communities face insurmountable obstacles in participating in these enriching experiences. It is our mission to remove barriers and facilitate access to international travel for underserved youth in the United States by developing and providing fully-funded programs for our student cohort, helping expand their mindset of possibilities and see the many opportunities and paths available to them.
Since our founding in 2021, Getaway Growth has partnered with non-profit organizations and community leaders to organize diverse, equitable, and transformative travel experiences for our student cohort. The past two summers, our cohorts participated in a two-week educational program exploring intercultural competence, ethical service learning, and environmental stewardship in Kenya.
Getaway Growth is thrilled to continue the program next year and strives to continue expanding our program types and student impact.
Your support of this event will enable us to make transformational differences in the lives of underserved youth who otherwise would not be able to travel, gain intercultural competence, and develop an understanding of their potential as global leaders.4 More opportunities with GETAWAY GROWTH
