Windsor Mountain International Student Travel
Summer Address:
Windsor, New Hampshire, United States
WINDSOR MOUNTAIN STUDENT TRAVEL PROGRAMS (gr. 6-12) provide authentic experiences involving community building, environmental awareness, leadership, language development and cross-cultural understanding. Students gain global perspectives on complex social, economic, cultural and ecological issues facing our partnering communities. 2010 destinations are Peru, Southern Africa, China, Caribbean, Puerto Rico and New England. Community Service Hours are awarded for all our programs, and recent service projects have included developing camp and learning activities for children, helping to build community centers, homes and playgrounds, clearing wilderness trails, installing water and irrigation systems, constructing and cultivating community gardens, working with disabled young adults, working in reforestation projects, assisting local farmers, cleaning fish ponds, and organizing food and medical brigades. Our students return with enthusiasm for reciprocal exchanges of powerful learning and meaningful work that serves vital needs of the communities we join. We approach all programs with an eye towards providing students a thorough understanding of a new place and helping them transfer that experience in a way that that helps them effect their own communities in meaningful and enduring ways.
