Our programs
What are the organization's current programs, how do they measure success, and who do the programs serve?
Travel Abroad Ambassador Program
The Travel Abroad Ambassador Program originated through Export Hope and has been acquired by Foster Greatness. We provide funded travel opportunities for young adults who otherwise wouldn't have the opportunity. Travelers decide where to go and what to do, anywhere in the world!
TRAVELER SAFETY IS OUR MOST IMPORTANT PRIORITY.
Our Ambassadors’ travels are arranged through our travel partners. We carefully select partners based on their vast experience sending volunteers abroad. Collectively, our travel partners have sent well over 100,000 volunteers abroad. Their teams specialize in sending people on SAFE and meaningful trips where their efforts have a lasting impact. By partnering with the best organizations, we deliver the safest experiences possible. (See the exporthope.org website for more information on travel partners.)
Foster Your Greatness Master Class
In this 16-week self-development program, participants will learn to work toward personal goals and set a course for living their best lives. Our evidence-based program is delivered through learning activities and the help of a coach who's "been there".
Workforce Development
Our jobs allow young people to develop confidence, skills, and self-growth to achieve their personal and professional goals. Workforce Development includes providing the resources and training needed to become a coach for our Foster your Greatness Master Class.
