Alliance Strategies is delighted to announce that Scottish company Wild Packs has joined its organization. Founded in 2008 by Jamie Fraser, Wild Packs is renowned for its expertise in the US Summer Camp program, having introduced thousands of British students to the time-honored Camp Counselor experience.
Jamie and his team of seasoned camp professionals have years of first-hand experience in the industry. Every member of the team has worked at camps across the USA, and they continue to work tirelessly to pass on the magic of the camp experience to thousands of British participants.
Wild Packs’ mission is simple yet impactful: to help people experience the unique joy of a US Summer Camp, while creating lifelong memories and gaining new skills. Collaborating exclusively with ACA-accredited camps, Wild Packs has been a trusted partner to Alliance Abroad for many years, a relationship which will be further deepened by this merger.
“Joining Alliance Strategies is an exciting chapter for us,” said Fraser. “Our shared love for the camp program and commitment to creating meaningful cultural exchanges make this partnership a natural fit. Participants can expect more support than ever—from smoother visa processes to expanded camp options. Camps, too, will benefit from access to even more passionate and prepared candidates.”
Adam Cooper, President of Alliance Abroad, added: “I’ve always admired Wild Packs for the personal touch they bring to the summer camp experience. Their expertise, trusted reputation and hands-on approach make them an ideal partner for us. Together, we’re making it easier than ever for participants and camps alike to thrive.”
James Bell, CEO of Alliance Strategies, shared his enthusiasm: “As someone who grew up in Scotland, I’m personally delighted to welcome Wild Packs into our family. It’s inspiring to see a Scottish company making such a profound impact on cultural exchange programs in the USA. This merger not only deepens our shared values but also strengthens our mission to change lives through incredible global experiences.”
Alliance Strategies continues to grow its portfolio of innovative programs and trusted brands, which includes Alliance Abroad, GeoVisions, and Stepwest. With the addition of Wild Packs, the organization strengthens its commitment to offering diverse pathways for participants to explore the world, develop personally and professionally, while engaging in meaningful cultural exchange.
