Una cosa incredibile che ho fatto
A Year with Up With People -
Up with People (UWP) is an educational organization whose mission is to inspire young people to make a difference in their world. UWP works to break down cultural barriers and create global understanding through volunteer service and a musical show.
Each group, called a cast, after training in Denver (it was in Tucson, Arizona during my era) , travels to nearly 20 communities across two or three continents, per semester, spending about one week in each community. Each week, they live with a local host family, participate in service projects, learn about different cultures through educational workshops, and perform in Up with People’s musical stage production.
Founded: 1965
Headquarters: Denver (Colorado, US) - previously located in Tucson (Arizona, US)
