Our achievements

In the last year alone we have assisted over 5,000 volunteers to have a life-changing travel experience in 24 countries around the world. We are very proud of all the volunteer projects we work with, which are sustainable and produce a positive long-term impact and are equally proud of our volunteers who devote their time and efforts into contributing to the projects which continue to develop communities abroad.

Our benefits to communities around the world

All of our projects overseas are based in the local community and are local initiatives. When you travel with us, you will stay in locally run accommodation and travel on locally owned transport. In this way we can ensure that the part of your placement fee assigned for transport and accommodation goes directly into the local economy. That means that before you've even lifted a finger on your project, you've already made an important contribution to the local economy.

Our support for our volunteers

We appreciate how special our volunteers are and offer our full support every step of the way. Our in-country coordinators are on-hand for you while you're in-country, providing airport pick-up and arrival orientation while we also provide 24/7 support for all our volunteer travellers.

Against aid reliance

We do not give direct funding to the projects we work with. Many experts believe that the constant flow of financial aid into the developing world causes an over-reliance on foreign aid, which harms the long-term stability of developing economies. It is your time and effort (rather than cold hard cash) that makes a difference. We truly believe that by working together and forging relationships with the developing world, we can make a real and lasting difference.

Our Big Giving programme assisting under-resourced projects focuses on well-managed and tangible items to assist our volunteers make a bigger difference during their time in country. Resources are bought for these projects by our in-country teams based on their needs and the activities of volunteers; this avoids aid reliance whilst providing support at the same time.
