"The gap year has eventually guided me back to the path that my classmates took last year, but it was a necessary detour for me because I discovered and developed the passions I hope to pursue in life."

Site Visits
In preparation for the Sept 2008 launch, Sandy and Robin Pendoley are visiting the program sites of each of the core countries to finalize the itinerary. You can follow their progress and learn about the incredible organizations they meet along the way by visiting the Travel Blog on the Forward Movement page of the website. |
Recruiting Leaders
 Chris Stakich is busy recruiting the first class of TBB students. Having
already visited more than a dozen schools to speak with students,
guidance staff, and administrators, Chris has met great enthusiasm for
the program. Through his continuing efforts, and those of Sandy and
Robin when they return from their trip to visit the program sites
abroad, TBB will visit more than sixty public and independent schools
around the US this year. Do you know someone with the potential to be
a conscious agent of change? Send them to our website, where they can
learn more about the program and download our application from the Apply Now page.
