Have you been looking for a life-changing adventure? How about one that will look great on your résumé? And how about one that is completely free?
If this sounds like you, we have great news! Kappa Delta Pi is partnering with People to People Ambassador Programs, one of the world’s most recognized and respected educational travel providers, on a contest exclusively for KDP members.
Beginning Jan. 19, KDP members will have the opportunity to apply for one of six travel scholarships to facilitate leadership training for students in grades 6-12. This training will focus on global citizenship, leadership skills, global confidence, and goal setting in one of People to People’s Leadership Summits or World Leadership Forums.
The KDP members chosen will help lead summer programs in Washington, DC, (three trips, including one to George Washington University), Boston (Harvard), or Los Angeles (UCLA), with all-expenses paid.
Sound interesting? The submission portal will be open Jan. 19-Feb. 28. Applicants will need to submit a 60-second video (from your phone is fine!) and answer a few essay questions. Winners will be selected by KDP staff and announced the week of March 9.
You can learn more about People to People’s programs on its website.
In the meantime, be thinking of why YOU should be selected for this opportunity, and check the KDP website on Jan. 19 to submit your application!
We are also pleased to announce that KDP and People to People will be partnering on international trips in 2016! Stay tuned for more exciting details.
