Rewarding Summerfuel Destinations for Good
Using Recruiting for Good to inspire people who love to make a difference, and gift travel. Imagine a world, where everyone could gift travel for good.
A little about me, before I became a recruiter (since 1995), I worked as a school teacher and teacher’s aid for 7 years. My parents invested in my travel while I was in Junior High and High School. I grew up both in Mexico, and Israel. And by the time I turned 40, I completed my bucket list for travel.
I transformed my recruiting agency to help people make a difference, and earn rewarding travel destinations for their family, friends, and community.

How to Fund Your Study Abroad and Make a Difference Too
Travel Teaches Compassion
“Perhaps travel cannot prevent bigotry, but by demonstrating that all peoples cry, laugh, eat, worry, and die, it can introduce the idea that if we try and understand each other, we may even become friends.” Maya Angelou
“We want to live in a country where anyone can afford to study abroad, learn, teach, and transform the world” the staff at recruiting for good.
Inspired By USC Freshmen
Recently, USC freshmen Alex Zhang and Ethan Mizrahi inspired us to offer our funding solution for study abroad programs.
Whether you want to learn how to make Gelato in Italy, or learn to speak Chinese in China, or learn about diplomacy in Milan; there is an endless possibilities to expand you mind when you travel and study abroad.
Our mission is to use recruiting for good collaboratively to help people make a difference. We are excited to help local Southern California parents fund high school and college summer abroad programs. And are willing to raise up to $10,000 per participating child and match monies raised to fund local causes and nonprofits.
3 Reasons to Study Abroad (information from Vistawide)
1) Study abroad enhances employment opportunities: Did you know that only 4% of U.S. undergraduates ever study abroad? Yet, the world continues to become more globalized, American countries are increasingly investing dollars abroad, and companies from countries around the world continue to invest in the international market.
2) Study abroad allows you get to know another culture first-hand. Cultural differences are more than just differences in language, food, appearances, and personal habits. A person’s culture reflects very deep perceptions, beliefs, and values that influence his or her way of life and the way that s/he views the world. Students who experience cultural differences personally can come to truly understand where other cultures are coming from.
3) The U.S. Senate issued a resolution to raise awareness and to help increase the number of U.S. students studying abroad. “Ensuring that the citizens of the United States are globally literate is the responsibility of the educational system of the United States.”
On a side note, at Recruiting for Good ,we are passion advocates of world travel; that is why we reward travel to people who participate in our social funding programs.
How do you qualify to fund your study abroad program?
1) Connect with Carlos@retainsourcing.com, he is the founder, senior recruiter, and your humble collaborative partner.
2) Introduce your social contacts, and recruiting for good will generate proceeds on your behalf to fund your kid’s or benefactor’s summer study abroad program.
3) Recruiting for Good will match dollar for dollar raised to donate proceeds to a nonprofit, school, or university of your choice.
