camp partnerships
where camp alumni & leaders grow.
Originated from a summer camp, Global Routes programs serve as a natural progression for campers who have aged out of your camp, but aren't quite ready for a staff role. Offer campers the opportunity to maintain strong camp connections and take the spirit of your camp with them as they hone their leadership skills in an international setting. Here, your campers become global citizens.

GARY, Camp Director
"We love working with Global Routes because they are exactly what we are looking for and what our young professionals need, to be taken out of their comfort zone and challenged the old fashioned way, by doing and possibly failing. All of the teenagers we have sent with Global Routes on their leadership training trip have walked away with valuable life lessons on communication, resilience, leadership and teamwork. Global Routes has always been great to work with as they have helped customize this week-long trip to fit the goals of our program."
DALIAH, Leaders-in-Action Alum
"I will remember the importance of forming relationships with other people to learn more about them and myself. I will remember the challenges I faced and my ability to overcome them, and I will feel more confident taking on new challenges. I feel that I have developed the skills I began to work on as an LIA at WMI. I feel like a confident leader and would like to use my leadership skills to influence the world positively. I will continue to seek new places, situations, and people, and I will feel more confident approaching them and exploring the world with them."
Leaders-in-Action Parent
"Our son had an amazing trip with the LIA group in Costa Rica. He made new friends and had fantastic experiences that he will remember for the rest of his life. It was an invaluable experience in terms of developing his independence and confidence and learning about and gaining an appreciation for different communities. His only complaint when he got home was that the program wasn't longer!"
