Corporate Expeditions

For Companies Ready to Go Beyond the Offsite

A team that works alongside conservation leaders thinks differently. We design custom expeditions for companies with environmental or impact-oriented cultures, connecting your team directly with grassroots organizations doing real work on the ground across Latin America.

The work is physical, documented, and tied to your CSR objectives. Evening debriefs connect the fieldwork to your company’s values. Your team returns with stronger cohesion, fresh perspective, and authentic content for stakeholder communications.

From logistics to lodging, Somos handles every detail so your leadership can focus on the experience itself.

Measurable impact documentation for CSR reporting

Facilitated evening reflection and debrief structure

Ideal for teams of 8 to 20, customizable by destination and duration

Turnkey logistics including transportation, accommodation, and bilingual guides

Pre-and post-expedition resources included

Donor and Rotary Expeditions

For Rotary Clubs and Donor Groups Who Want Direct Access

For Rotary clubs and donor groups, the gap between contributing to a cause and understanding it is enormous. A Somos expedition closes that gap. We connect your group directly with vetted grassroots organizations working on environment, education, and economic development across Central and South America.

You do not visit as observers. You participate as partners, working alongside local leaders, seeing projects in progress, and leaving with a firsthand understanding of where resources go and what they make possible. Programs align with Rotary’s Areas of Focus and can be structured around global grant site visits, specific partner organizations, or new funding relationships your club is exploring.

Direct access to community leaders and active project sites

Post-expedition documentation for club reports and foundation records

Can include global grant verification, hands-on service days, and club-specific components

Ideal for groups of 6 to 20
