VISIONS inspires young people to develop their own sense of purpose through volunteer service work, cross-cultural exploration, off the beaten path adventures, and connecting to the natural world.

DEVELOP YOUR OWN VISION THROUGH:

  • Engaging with different people in novel contexts
  • Participating in significant and meaningful service projects
  • Forming genuine relationships with new friends
  • Putting your talent and passion to action

Since 1988

We’re different

VISIONS builds communities of teens, leaders and local people who support each other while working toward shared goals and supporting community needs. The experience builds character and changes lives.
