Hostel Adventure programs are unique in serving schools
and youth groups with the fewest resources and the most limited opportunities
to experience the world outside of their immediate neighborhoods.
On top of offering the most affordable residential youth programming in the region, Hostel Adventures are able to provide scholarship assistance to more than 70 percent of attending youth groups. Most of these schools are able to participate in our program because of our low program fees and scholarship support.
"The Hostel Adventure program is the most affordable program around. I'm grateful for the scholarship that you gave our class, especially because our school has so little money for field trips this year, and the kids can't afford to pay their own way."
--4th grade teacher, John Muir Elementary School (San Francisco)
