HIGH SCHOOL SERVICE DIRECTORS

Transforming Lives Through Service

Community-driven service trips that build cross-cultural understanding, global citizenship, and a more humane world.

What We Do:

We transform lives. How? It starts with a willingness to serve, learn, and connect:

At Courts for Kids, we believe in the transformative power of service to inspire leadership, broaden perspectives, and foster global connection. Since 2007, we’ve partnered with Catholic high schools like yours to create fully immersive and customizable service trips that make a meaningful impact on both the communities served and the students themselves.

Why Courts for Kids?

  • VALUE ALIGNMENT

    Our service trips are community-driven from the start. Local communities identify the need, initiate the project, and shape the vision—we partner with them to bring it to life. Through hard work and full immersion, students collaborate with community members to build vibrant spaces for recreation and connection. Along the way, they gain practical skills, forge lasting relationships, and leave with a deeper understanding of the world and their role in it.

  • WE MAKE IT EASY FOR YOU

    We handle ALL trip logistics, offering an affordable, tailored experience for your students. With our personalized approach, students will have a once-in-a-lifetime service opportunity at half the cost of similar organizations. Plus, as a registered non-profit, funds raised are tax-deductible. We also offer scholarships.

  • A TRUSTED PARTNER

    With nearly two decades of experience, we’ve earned a reputation built on trust with our partners and volunteers. Our on-the-ground partners live in the countries we serve, ensuring that all projects are safe, meaningful, and centered on the needs of our community partners. We work only with vetted partners, and our trips adhere to strict safety protocols. Don’t just take it from us—explore our glowing testimonials from past trips!

"Over the past 12 years, I’ve organized 20+ Courts for Kids trips. No other organization I’ve found does more to promote values of growth, [social] justice, love, faith, and critical thinking. Courts for Kids offers safe, well-organized, and culturally rich experiences that strongly align with our mission and values. What's more, from an administrative standpoint, Courts for Kids makes life easy for faculty like us. They take care of nearly all logistics and planning, so you can experience the immersive service trip as a participant, rather than the planner of it."
