We have two planned humanitarian expiditions to Peru in 2010.

Plus we’re always looking for great opportunites to create a higher image of humanity.

Please check back soon and often to see us in action!

The Galileo Foundation’s goal is to create a "higher image" of humanity by providing both local and international service learning opportunities designed to benefit those living at the "bottom of the socio-economic pyramid", whether it be the refugee groups living along the Wasatch front or a remote rural village in Latin America, Africa or Asia. The inter-cultural exchange that takes place as part of this service helps all those who participate and is an important aspect of the "shared opportunity model".

The foundation believes that people have much more power when they are working for something good than when they are working against something bad. It also acknowledges the simple truth that "without a sustaining purpose, a human being waxes destructive." Because human beings are powerful, it is important to be in contact with people who are doing many positive, constructive things, otherwise this tremendous energy will turn against us.
