GET BACK
TO HUMAN CONNECTION

Learn about our Uganda Trip

When everything’s generated, what’s genuine?

Social media shapes our beliefs. Misinformation spreads faster than truth. Bots pose as people. Algorithms cause division.

We are more connected than ever—and, yet, more isolated than ever before.

Sometimes you need to disconnect to reconnect

At The Culture Connection Project, we rebuild human connection from the ground up.

Our international trips are more than travel. They’re immersive experiences that bring people into the depth of humanity, culture, and ourselves - far outside of the algorithm.

Re-discover human connection, purpose, and yourself

From working alongside Ugandan change-agents, to living with tribal villagers of Bastar, India - these experiences are designed to reconnect you to what matters most, all while supporting our international partners build hope within their communities.
