International Service Learning Trips

Our Founder Akash Patel has traveled to and spoken at schools and universities in over 30 countries. He leads groups of high school and college students, and professionals on service learning trips to different countries each summer.

Some of our most popular trips include elephant conservation in Nepal & India, sea turtle conservation in Costa Rica and humanitarian trips to Cuba. Participants get the incredibly unique opportunity of working with thousands of nesting sea turtles at an arribada at the Ostional Wildlife Refuge in Costa Rica or they get to make elephant poopoopaper and take mud water baths with Asiatic elephants at the Chitwan National Park in Nepal or take humanitarian aid and immerse themselves in Cuban culture.
