ASB Orlando partners with Give Kids the World Village, a nonprofit resort that provides cost-free vacations to children with critical illnesses and their families. Throughout the week, students support Village operations by volunteering in dining areas, attractions, entertainment spaces, and family-centered activities that help create a joyful, stress-free experience for visiting families.

Meet your Team Leaders

Our student Team Leaders are chosen in a competitive process to lead our ASB Experiences and have spent extensive time prior to the trip engaging with our ASB Team Leader Development courses. Team Leaders co-create the trip experience alongside professional staff in Student Leadership and Engagement. They learn how to plan all aspects of an ASB Experience, from the trip itinerary and reflection activities to risk management procedures and meal planning.
