Update from the Home Office
Everyone here in the Global Works Home Office has been busy preparing for our Summer Service Adventure trips starting in June, in addition to our current Custom Group Travel Programs that are already in the field! We’ve had 8 trips already on the go this year, and will have many more trips traveling the globe in the upcoming months! Check out some of the trip updates by clicking here: TRIP UPDATES.
While we have been busy in the home office, we have also been having fun! Here is an update from our office homies:
Polly & Fritz Moriarty:
The Moriarty’s have been busy spending time with their children, running races, and starting the Global Works Community Fund! Here are a few highlights: Ellie (their oldest daughter) turned 4 and now attends a Spanish immersion pre-school. She already aspires to be a stellar Global Works leader in 19 years! Hanna turned 1 and is learning how to hula hoop. Ellie’s a pretty good teacher!
In her free time, Polly has been busy getting Global Works Community Fund started! (more…)

Trivia: 2011 Catalog Quiz – ANSWERS
We hope you had sometime to review our 2011 Catalog. Here are the answers to our trivia questions from last week!
Q: What year did Global Works set out on their first adventure, and what was the purpose of this trip?
A: Global Works was founded in 1989 by Pam and James “Biff” Houldin. Puerto Rico was the destination for the first service program. In an unfortunate coincidence, Hurricane Hugo devastated much of Puerto Rico that September. Amidst the devastation, Biff realized that meaningful service and cultural exchange might be achieved through the reconstruction of homes after this terrible storm. In the summer of 1990, 25 students and 5 staff embarked for Puerto Rico!
