Service organizations have long been at the heart of community engagement, social responsibility, and leadership development. But what if your next big service project didn’t stay local – what if it transformed lives around the world while deepening your team’s connection, compassion, and global awareness? At Globe Aware, service organizations of all kinds – from Greek life and school clubs to nonprofit and civic groups – experience volunteer trips that combine purposeful service with cultural immersion in communities across Asia, Latin America, Africa, and beyond. These carefully designed experiences allow your group to serve alongside local partners, contribute to meaningful projects, and return home with new perspectives that enrich both service and life.

In this episode of The Devon Taylor Podcast, Kimberly Haley-Coleman, Founder and Executive Director of Globe Aware, challenges some of the most common assumptions about international volunteerism—and offers a more honest, effective model for how it should work.
