Make a Positive Impact.

Every volunteer makes a difference in the arc of a child’s life.  And in the process of serving, their life is enriched as well.  Parents and community leaders do the heavy lifting.  But through the ongoing efforts of volunteers, remarkable change occurs!

“Global Volunteers always does a good job preparing their people before they go out, so that they are well-organized and well-focused when they are out in the field. They are definitely an organization that we look up to.”

“Global Volunteers was one of about a dozen NGOs I researched. We chose Global Volunteers because they supplied excellent information, and we liked the fact that all projects are in partnership with local people.”

“I volunteered in Russia, Indonesia, Tanzania and Mississippi with Global Volunteers. They were life-changing experiences. It’s a great organization that does a ‘world’ of good.”

“Worth all of my 20 years of service programs – which changed my life forever. Thank you, Global Volunteers!!”
