In today’s world volunteering has become an ever growing sector as more and more people wish to dedicate their time to ‘giving back’ to those societies or communities less fortunate than others. In essence ‘volunteering’ means a person who freely offers to take part in an enterprise or undertake a task without being paid. However, many who have volunteered can say that although volunteering offers no monetary reward, it most definitely offers plenty of richness.

Volunteering allows you to put your skills and time in good use by helping to make a positive impact on a project, be it small or large. From teaching English, to putting together a marketing plan to working with animals, volunteering comes in different forms but all have the same goal and bring the same feeling of fulfilment and self-purpose. Do good, feel good.

Volunteering allows you to further develop your skills and passion and find something that you are really good at. Unsurprisingly this helps open more doors to full-time paid employment within the sector that you really enjoy working in.

More so volunteering abroad provides you with that extra added experience and challenge as it gives you the opportunity to discover a whole new world while also working and interacting with the locals, immersing yourself in a cultural experience. This in itself is not only character building but also helps you understand and provide aid to a community that was born in a less fortunate situation than yourself.

Today the possibility to combine travel, adventure and volunteering while also having a positive impact on the world is more possible than ever before. There are a number of organisations that offer ethical volunteering opportunities abroad for free or at a reasonable cost.
