BEYOND THE CITY

Description

Beyond the City was created to share the love of and access to travel with the underserved youth in the Greater Grand Rapids area. We are committed to providing FREE travel adventures beyond the Greater Grand Rapids Area to inspire youth through the experience of travel.

Travel can significantly build confidence and boost development of youth as they make their way through unfamiliar territory, both physically and psychologically. These experiences and opportunities are going to impact who they become as adults by creating a sense of belonging while celebrating their communities. Learning doesn't only happen in the classroom. Beyond the City creates hands-on experiences outside the city limits and outside of the traditional classrooms that allow our youth to explore their culture, history, and excellence across the country. Travel has the power to change lives and open our youth's minds to the endless possibilities of their future while building stronger communities.
