Rio de Janeiro and Rio Claro, Brazil

The Harvard Alumni Association invites you to participate in a family-friendly innovative service experience to Brazil this fall! Open to participants of all skill levels and interests, this opportunity is new for Harvard alumni and their families, friends, and guests. We are cosponsoring this program with the Association of Yale alumni and are working in partnership with a travel provider that specializes in professional development in Brazil and an NGO based in Brazil.

The Brazil Service Tour will focus on supporting sustainability initiatives and local entrepreneurs in the Atlantic Forest region. The service projects will be conducted in and around the city of Rio Claro, about two hours outside the city of Rio de Janeiro. The projects will be shaped by matching the skill sets and interests of program participants with the needs of our local partners. Participants are encouraged to bring their enthusiasm, skills, and experience to collaborate with us on this dynamic journey!
