Why a Volunteer Vacation?

We believe that volunteer vacations are the best way for travelers to discover a country because they connect you directly to the local people, nature, and wildlife that bring each community to live.

Discover the Heart & Soul of a Country

Why a Volunteer Vacation Abroad?

Volunteer vacations put you side-by-side with local people, nature, and wildlife and embed you into the fabric of a different society, allowing you to discover a country as an insider. Savvy travelers know this is one of the best ways to really get to know a community. Besides volunteering abroad, we’ll facilitate activities that connect you with fascinating local people. You might enjoy a hands-on cultural workshop, participate in satellite projects with conservationists, or visit sites of cultural and historical significance. You’ll live in the Discover Corps’ distinctive lodging, whether that be a unique bed & breakfast or a rustic bungalow by the beach, that will become your home-away-from-home. Each accommodation is nestled in a local community, far away from the big hotels. Our expert local staff will welcome you like a friend, eager to share their way of life with you.
