I've participated in Bright Light trips in Asia and Latin America. The service programs were well thought out and emphasized working with local communities to create projects that were both relevant and sustainable. Bright Light Volunteers works closely with educators to design tailored programs to meet their needs and align service programs and cultural activities with what is being covered in the classroom. I had the opportunity to travel internationally as a teen, and as an adult it is exciting to see the positive impact these trips have on the students fortunate enough to participate.
Such an amazing organization! Students are empowered by the work they do and puts into perspective what really matters. As a Transition Specialist in the education field I can vouch that these experiences help prepare them for life after their schooling and one day give back to what they know is needed in the world. Keep up the great work!!
This past spring break I traveled with Bright Light Volunteers to Cuba and had an amazing experience! If you're on the fence about going, DO IT! The adventure is humbling and full of wonderful learning opportunities!
Bright Light Volunteers has made a tremendous difference in my students' lives. We have participated in service trips to Cambodia, Peru, and Cuba and are about to travel to Greece. The sustainable work we do in these countries has made a lasting impact on the communities and my students have been inspired in endless ways. Bright Light Volunteers is unique in their mission to teach students about culture through meaningful service work. It is through these service trips that we have truly made the world a brighter place.
I took a group of students to Cuba this summer with Bright Light Volunteers. We had such a great time working on an organic farm in Vinales. There was a great blend of volunteering and cultural activities for our group. Our local guide, Eduardo, made this trip extra special. He was so warm, open, patient, intelligent and he told the best "yokes"! I plan to travel again with Bright Light to Peru next summer as well. Their prices are very affordable and everything was included.
