What our volunteers are saying
Sidney Kannel | USA
Living and volunteering in the village has been one of the most rewarding experiences I have ever had. After just 4 short weeks, the place had truly become my home, and the people my family.
Craig Puttnam | UK
I'd do it again in a heartbeat. It's a perfect way to travel and just an experience unlike any other, it'll likely stay with you for the rest of your life.
Janet Patry | USA
My project exceeded my every expectation - this was without a doubt the single greatest experience of my life!
