The Glimpse Foundation

Informed by our mission and philosophy, Glimpse programs strive to highlight the personal on a global scale. With depth, breadth and intimacy, Glimpse programs offer insight into cultural, social and political affairs around the world. Glimpse Abroad is an online community of young adults with a shared interest in traveling and living overseas. It features a comprehensive database of cultural narratives from around the world, searchable by region or theme. Registered users may also connect with other students and volunteers abroad, read and write travel blogs, search for international program providers, find historical and cultural resources to help them prepare for a trip abroad and purchase travel-related goods. Glimpse Quarterly is an international news, travel and culture magazine that features compelling narratives written by youth living abroad, on themes ranging from quarry divers in France to taxicabs in Kyrgyzstan to genocide in Central Africa. With depth, breadth and intimacy, we tackle the international issues that no one talks about and delve into the daily cultural realities that no one sees.
