VIA (formerly Volunteers in Asia), a non-profit, educational exchange organization started at Stanford, has been creating intensive and engaging cross-cultural experiences for over 50 years. Beginning in 1963, VIA has sent over 2000 students from Stanford and young professionals from across the U.S. to different parts of Asia to immerse in the local community and work as capacity builders and teachers. Since 1977, VIA has also led over 5000 students from top Asian universities on unique educational programs at Stanford and around the SF Bay Area.
