Analy Panama Spring Break 2016

Aluna's Message

Hi, my name is Aluna Klein and I am a junior at Analy High School. During the spring break of 2016, a group of my classmates and I have the opportunity to travel to Panama. We will be working with local high school students to help build gardens in the community of Margaritas, along with reforesting trees in Panama's rainforest. I have been studying Spanish for ten years and cannot wait to put all that I have learned to use! I am very excited to go and experience another culture first hand, while creating memories that will stick with me for the rest of my life. Each student must fundraise $2,400 to go on the trip. Any amount of donation helps make this trip possible for me. Many thanks :)

Volunteer Activity Description

TRAVEL.
Traveling with GSE involves everything from staying in the biodiverse rainforest in Panama to visiting the Panama Canal. Students enjoy authentic cuisine and collaborate on local projects with Earth Train in the community of Margaritas.

LEARN.
GSE uses hands-on service-learning projects and cultural exchanges to provide students with life changing learning opportunities. Students develop ecological literacy and participate in grassroots international relations while building crucial 21st century skills such as communication and collaboration.

IMPACT.
This will be one of GSE's pilot trip to Panama. Therefore students will have the opportunity to participate in building stronger local partnerships, break ground on the first school garden projects in the community of Margaritas, and work with local students to reforest trees at the Manabi reserve in Panama's rainforest.

GROW.
Plants aren’t the only things that grow! International travel facilitates profound transformation for students. Students leave the trip with a better understanding of different cultures and people, inspiring them to become change makers and leaders in their own community.
