If it feels like cancer took up too much of your story in 2016 and you are looking for a meaningful way to start fresh in 2017, we can’t wait to meet you. Our first program of the year kicks off March 5-18, 2017 in the Orosi Valley of Costa Rica when we join international volunteering experts – Cross-Cultural Solutions – for an unforgettable two weeks of service, culture, and travel.

Introducing Late Admissions For Costa Rica (March 5-18, 2017)

We know dealing with cancer – either as a patient/survivor or caregiver – can be unpredictable. Sometimes it’s difficult to make decisions too far in advance as you wait for scan results, determine treatment options, or settle into a new job or life change post-treatment. For the first time, we have held back 3 spots on our upcoming Costa Rica program for Late Admissions Applicants. If you are ready to start your fresh chapter in the spring, you still have the opportunity to join us. We can’t wait to introduce you to Costa Rica’s welcoming pura vida culture, stunning natural beauty, and inspiring volunteer projects.

Official 2017 Program Announcement Coming Soon!

Stay tuned for our official 2017 Program Announcement including dates for both Cape Town, South Africa and Lima, Peru as well as more details on our first ever U.S. based Leadership Odyssey. Applications for our fall programs will open early in 2017.

May the coming year be filled with adventures, new friendships, and expanding the story way beyond cancer.

*Each of our Odyssey Programs are open to men and women impacted by cancer (either as a patient/survivor or caregiver) and include both an unforgettable volunteer travel experience as well as extensive support, tools, and resources before and after your trip to help you heal the emotional scars of cancer and reimagine your next chapter.
