Adults volunteering abroad programAre you looking for an international work experience? Are you interested in learning a new language while contributing to a community in need? Or maybe you are looking for a different way of spending your summer? Choose the program and destination that fit your goals and expectations and live an experience of a lifetime!

The regular Community Service Program provides you with the opportunity to work in a community organization, with accommodations either in a host family or at the work site. You will also have the opportunity to participate in local activities giving you the chance to learn more about the cultural and socio-economic realities of your host country. The programs lengths vary between 4 weeks to 11 months!

Flex Program: Similar to the regular Community Service Program, it offers greater flexibility. It lasts as long as you want (minimum 4 weeks according to your destination), and allows you to travel on your own when your program is completed.
