Up With People

Up with People is a nonprofit organization that offers college-aged participants from over 20 countries the opportunity to travel and immerse themselves in local communities through volunteer work, cultural experiences, and a dynamic musical show. The program provides a unique gap year experience that combines international travel, service learning, leadership workshops, and the performing arts. Participants can apply for one or two semesters beginning in January and July of each year. Up with People aims to empower young adults to become positive agents of change for a more hopeful, trusting, and peaceful world.
