go seasons
2 Months – 2 Years
Go Seasons are mid-term trips, from around two months to two years. Given the extended time of the trip, the shape of Go Seasons can look quite a bit different from shorter Go Trips. While Go Seasons are open to anyone, they are often the best fit for someone who is in college, retired, or in a gap year between jobs or education.
Go Seasons are available for 2026 with most of our partners we take Go Trips to serve with, including Clarkston, Bogota, and Uganda. Contact the Go Team to learn more about a GO Season
