Alaska – GLA for Families

GLA for Families provides immersive & meaningful family vacations operated by our sister organization, Discover Corps. Each trip will take you on a journey through the country's must-see sites while going behind-the-scenes to experience a variety of purposeful organizations and people that are making difference.

Venture across the famed Kenai Peninsula to witness the epic beauty of Alaska’s coast, mountains and people. Along the way, we’ll take you to leading organizations and introduce you to some of the most dedicated individuals working to protect the wildlife and resources of the 49th state.

Learn about puffin conservation at the Alaska Sealife Center, explore the creatures of the docks by way of “belly biology”, take a boat to a remote scientific field station, visit an oyster farm (and try the oysters!) and get hands-on experience of true Alaskan dog sledding, riding with a local family that has dedicated their life to this tradition.
