Giving Back to the World We Travel

Grand Circle, through Grand Circle Foundation, has a long history of giving back to the people and places we visit. The Foundation has donated more than $32 million throughout the world in locations including  Africa, Asia, South Pacific, Europe and the Americas. Many of the projects the Foundation supports are, quite literally, in the path of our travelers. By traveling with Grand Circle, you help make these worthy efforts possible.

Our Mission

As travelers, explorers, and members of the world community, our goal is to give something of lasting value back to the world we travel by investing in the future through the education of young people, and supporting the preservation of cultural treasures and traditions.

World Classroom Initiative

To Grand Circle, the world truly is a classroom. We believe that the best travel discoveries happen through hands-on learning and personal exchange with the people who call a destination home. And we're committed to to giving back to the communities we visit.
