Group Site Visits

Thank you for your interest in joining us for a Group Site Visit! Our site visits offer the unique opportunity to experience our work first hand and to directly engage in our mission of providing the life-long gift of education for millions of children throughout Asia and Africa. Group site visits are hosted by our local staff and are designed for independent travelers such as existing donors, volunteers, and other interested parties. Site visits are a half-day to a full-day in length and offer our guests an overview of the variety of programs we are implementing in these regions. Site visits may include a visit to a Room to Read school, library, or a short visit with participants in our Girls' Education Program.

2012 Group Site Visit dates are in the process of being determined and will be posted as they are confirmed. Please continue to check back for updates. The cost to join a group site visit is $25 USD.  To register, please click on the date of the visit you would like to attend. If you are traveling with friends or family, please note that each participant needs to register independently.  

Registration forms will be accepted up to one month in advance of the site visit date. Space is limited and participation is based on a first come, first served basis. Please note that we will not issue refunds for any cancelations within one month of the site visit.

Site Visits for Local Residents

If you are a local national you may attend a group site visit in your country for free. Please email travel@roomtoread.org to register at least one month in advance of the site visit date in order to allow our local staff to plan appropriately.

We truly hope that you can attend one of our site visits and experience our work. Because our local teams are extremely focused on providing educational opportunities to children in the developing world, we are unable to accommodate requests outside of these dates. We appreciate your flexibility and understanding and hope to see you in one of our program countries!

We plan our site visit calendar on an annual basis. If you are looking for a calendar of visits for 2013, please check back periodically, as we typically provide this information at the end of the year.
