Volunteering abroad is an amazing opportunity no matter your age, background or experience.  All volunteers bring their own unique skill-sets and are welcomed with open arms by the local communities in which they serve. Whether you are a College Student, Recent Graduate or Adult Volunteer we have a project for you! Or, maybe you’re looking for Group Opportunities or a Teens Only Project. Visit Who Volunteers to learn more about VFP volunteers!
