OPERATION GROUNDSWELL: BACKPACKING WITH A PURPOSE
Operation
Groundswell is looking for students who want to get out of the classroom and
into the world for some hands-on learning and meaningful volunteer experience.
Join us this winter in Guatemala where we will:
- Go off the grid on a journey up into the remote village of Rio Negro, site of an infamous massacre in the early 1980s
- Experience Mayan culture first-hand by living and working collaboratively on a community-requested project with indigenous families
- Visit the notorious Pavon Prison to learn about the ongoing fight for justice that continues decades after Guatemala’s civil war
- Raft on the shores of the Lanquin and Cahabon Rivers and swim in the natural turquoise and pristine waters of Semuc Champey
If you're
into cultural exchange, fulfilling community service, and off-the-beaten path
adventure, apply for our Guatemala Winter Break program before December
9th!
Can’t travel
this winter or want to travel elsewhere? We also have a number of programs in the spring and
summer all around the world!
Check out our map of where we go.
