Additional Information
People to People Ambassador Program Leader
I was responsible for 6th grade-12th graders as we experienced summer travel excursions in order to learn about other cultures. We traveled to Japan, Australia, Ireland, Wales, Britain, Netherlands, and France where we would study other cultures and complete a service project for two-three weeks. We would meet monthly for four months to study and learn about the countries we were to visit and their customs, food, and culture so we could be ambassadors.
