Dedication to service is far more valuable than any one person's individual skills. Adapting to a new culture and working in such a meaningful and challenging capacity was one of the most satisfying and important events I have experienced and has changed my life forever. Our philosophy focuses on empowerment, not pity or charity. Our programs combine service with real world learning. Volunteers routinely leave the program with a new appreciation for the host country and its people.
Many volunteers say that working side by side with the local people was a life-changing experience.
