Trip description:

In Belize, students choose their academic track at age 14, a decision that shapes their college options and future careers. During Future Pathways Week, PathLight International brings professionals, executives, and mentors from every field to help students see what’s possible and make that choice with confidence. Over five days, you’ll visit three PathLight centers. You’ll share your story with students, mentor young adults already in college, and invest in the local staff who walk alongside them every day. Between sessions, you’ll get to know Belize itself: its history, its food, and its natural beauty. Whether you work in business, healthcare, technology, the trades, law, education, or entrepreneurship, your experience can help a student’s dreams take shape.

Included on this trip:
  • Swapping stories with students at three PathLight centers as they dream up what’s next
  • One-on-one mentoring with PathLight college students who are just starting their careers
  • Sharing your hard-won wisdom with the PathLight Belize staff who make it all happen
  • A taste of Belize: a city and museum tour, a visit to the zoo, local meals, and a team that handles every logistic, so you can just show up and pour in
