Global Village

Global Village Trips 
Habitat for Humanity International’s Global Village trips offer participants the unique perspective on another part of our world. Team members work alongside members of the host community and get to know another culture in a way very few can.

Global Village volunteers have the opportunity to participate in local cultural activities, help raise awareness of the burden of poverty housing and, of course, further Habitat’s mission to build decent, affordable housing worldwide. As partners, team members help build a true global village of love, homes, communities and hope!
