GLOBAL impact

Our Global Impact TeleSquad program explores a variety of public health, medical, microfinancing and community banking, and WASH (Water, Sanitation and Hygiene) projects, with an extended focus on a hands-on collaboration with community members to plan and implement a public health development project.

Together these experiences help students develop transferable skills that can be applied across a variety of community development projects and in a variety of global locations.

Teachers, join our movement!

Squads are passionate groups of volunteers who mobilize abroad to create positive change. Each Squad type has a skill-based focus area that support the education, health and economic development objectives of community partners. Faculty choose their dates, duration (typically 1-2 weeks), and their site location from one of our six program countries.
