Bringing the whole world to the classroom

The Global Corner is a Northwest Florida non-profit that promotes global competency and cultural appreciation. We foster understanding, empathy and civility in the hearts and minds of each child we teach.

Through our program, we bring the experience of traveling to a faraway country to students in classrooms all over Escambia and Santa Rosa counties. Through language, geography and cultural education, art, song, dance and more, we provide a comprehensive, tactile learning experience that transports students across borders, and around the globe.
