The projects that you'll find on their site were started by people who saw a need and acted on it, by; starting a school, creating a reserve, building an animal shelter, growing organic food, etc. Traveling is a way to discover new things about ourselves and learn to see ourselves more clearly. Volunteering abroad is a way to spend time within another culture, to become part of new community, to experience life from a different perspective.

Each organized vacation offers all kinds of activities in all kinds of locations. It's also a great way to meet new people. Space is limited to their trips and seminars so if you see one you like, get to it!
