Innovative solutions for retreats with impact
Venture with Impact designs customized international retreats and ‘workations’ with a focus on engaging and inspiring your group or team and creating a positive social impact in the process through pro bono volunteering. Our programs combine skills-based volunteering, professional/personal development, and cultural immersion, to create a unique experience for your group. Our in-country teams ensure that participants are well equipped with comfortable accommodation, reliable internet and transportation assistance.
Perfect for employee engagement and retention, our 30-day ‘workation’ is a coworking retreat that provides professionals with the opportunity to work and travel while giving back through skills-based volunteering.
Our custom retreat programs, for groups of 5 or more combine skills-based volunteering, professional development/team building, and cultural immersion (day trips, language classes, yoga, etc.) Retreats range from 1-4 weeks.
Are you a retreat provider looking to expand to new locations or offer something new? We have worked with providers such as yoga teachers, career coaches, and tour companies, to co-host, plan logistics, and add social impact to retreats.
