Our Home Bases
Safe, comfortable, and deeply embedded in the communities we serve.
Global Service Adventures Homebases
Global Service Adventures Home Base is a place to escape from the stresses of life and build lifelong friendships. It's a home away from home and gives students a sense of community, support, and reflection throughout their time there.
The Home Base is more than just a place to sleep and could be located in huge homes overlooking a city, an eco-lodge nestled in the mountain, a historical estate set on a 24-acre farm with beautiful mountains serving as its backdrop, or could be a family-operated guest house by the sea.
Here teens can experience relaxation in safety with others and have access to food amenities as well. It is the ultimate place for students to unwind, socialize and share stories with their friends.
