The Ensworth School is helping fund and build a guinea pig farm at the high school in Chilka, amidst the snow-covered mountains of Peru’s Sacred Valley. U.S. and Peruvian students will build the farm and understand how this local food source can help farmers better compete in the global market and create natural fertilizer for crops. Ensworth students will spend ten days living and working with families in Chilka before traveling to Machu Picchu, Cusco and Lima, Peru’s capital.

The mission of the World Leadership School is to unite young people around the world’s most pressing problems and empower them to become leaders. We use volunteering as a platform for teaching global issues and leadership.
World Leadership School partners with schools to offer 1-4 week service learning trips to Nicaragua, Costa Rica, Belize, Peru and the French Caribbean island of Guadeloupe. Each program is custom-fit to the needs of each school but includes the following key elements: On a World Leadership School trip, students focus on a single global issue like climate change or poverty. Students advance from understanding to action by working alongside inspiring local leaders who are doing something about these problems. Along the way, students will look inside themselves and begin a personal leadership journey. |
