Edu-Culture International is a nonprofit organization based in the San Francisco Bay Area of California with offices in the USA, Europe & Costa Rica. We are dedicated to promoting intercultural understanding between young people throughout the world.

ECI’s staff and volunteers are highly trained professionals with a background in education who have successfully organized educational travel programs in Spain, France, Costa Rica & the US for the past decade.

At Global Leadership Adventures, we believe that leaders are made and not born, and that leadership is a critical life skill that can be developed. Everyone can be a leader who rallies others around a vision or a goal.

We also think that individuals develop the foundation of their value-systems and their penchant for leadership during their formative adolescent years. This is why we founded an organization to nurture and develop young people. The GLA Experience will prepare participants for a lifetime of principled, ethical leadership.

As an international volunteer with Cross-Cultural Solutions, you're making a meaningful contribution, working side-by-side with local people and sharing in the goals of a community that warmly welcomes you. You're experiencing another culture like never before and really getting to know its people.

CCS offers international volunteer programs in Brazil, China, Costa Rica, Ghana, Guatemala, India, Morocco, Peru, Russia, South Africa, Tanzania, and Thailand.
