High school
Our experienced BTCV team leaders will take your high school juniors and seniors on organized, education focused volunteer trips globally. This is typically done through the schools global perspectives or international studies program. Teams are made up of 10-20 students, parents and school staff members. We welcome individual students with a parent or guardian.

college
There is no better time to travel and serve than your college years. Joining a BTCV team will broaden your global perspectives and give you an opportunity to serve and be immersed in a local culture in ways that no regular trip can create. Join one of our teams and serve alongside others or work with your schools office of international studies to build a BTCV team.
