Volunteering help address many of the most important development challenges facing global
communities. Volunteer programs empower people to play an active role in their communities’
development, while gaining the experience, knowledge, values and life skills necessary for
employment and full citizenship. They can also contribute to achieving national priorities such
as nation-building and improving governance. Benefits in volunteering accrue both to the
country being served, and the serving volunteer.

Volunteer Abroad Program Cost
Volunteers help donate cash to the project cost. Our group also use some percentage of
the funds to contribute materials and other resources to the overseas project. The

Therefore community members and our partners are unable to pay foreign volunteers to come
and assist, or able to provide financial support for visiting volunteers whilst they help to
improve the quality of their lives.

We arrange with host families to host foreign volunteers and pricing is based on the location
where a volunteer wants his/hers service.

A host preparation fee may be paid during the online application process.

Program cost may include ONLY the following services:
