i-to-iCommunity Development Volunteer Work Abroad
Ecotourism in the truest sense of the word, community volunteer work abroad encompasses a huge spectrum of international volunteering opportunities, ranging from community work with children in Africa to building homes for local communities in South America. All community volunteer projects share the same core value; they make a vital difference to the development and future of communities abroad. i-to-i volunteers play an important role by providing skills and paving a positive path for children in orphanages, shelters and schools.
Volunteers who get involved with community volunteer work overseas make an integral difference to the futures of foreign communities, while adding to their own portfolio and exploring a fascinating culture. We offer community volunteer work across the world, whether you wish to help with community development work in India’s Bangalore, community work in coastal Costa Rica, or community work with orphans near Cape Town.
i-to-i community volunteers also work with adults in residential homes, AIDS outreach projects and artisan’s cooperatives. Volunteers’ time and effort brings much hope to the lives of people who have been neglected by the global economy. To help our volunteers fully prepare for the rewarding challenge of community work abroad, we provide complementary online TEFL certifications to enable our volunteers to teach English as a foreign language overseas.
