    Overview

    Help out animal rescues and humanitarian organizations around the world by volunteering abroad! Make a meaningful difference while you travel and discover yourself while you're there. Not only will it be a life changing experience for yourself and those around you, it will also be a great addition for resumés!

    Volunteering overseas gives you the unique opportunity to experience local cultures first-hand and make a real difference in critical projects and causes internationally, from Africa and Asia, Central and South America to Europe and the South Pacific. Volunteering abroad is generally an all-inclusive voluntourism experience where you’ll play a vital role in creating sustainable and positive change to humanitarian projects, local communities, animal rehabilitation or rescue centres, the natural environment, or at vetted organisations and genuine charitable causes around the world. Plus, you’ll have the chance to experience local activities, excursions and day trips in your time off. See the real world off the beaten tourist path, make new friends, learn new skills and embark on a journey of self-discovery. You’ll return home feeling rewarded and proud of the lasting impact you have made.
