Matador Volunteer Offers Ten Ways to Volunteer Abroad
Though there are a few obvious ones here—like Peace Corps and WWOOF (Willing Workers on Organic Farms)—I definitely learned a few things as well; I’d never heard of Sudan Volunteer Programme, Turtle Teams, or Help Exchange, for example. There is also something about volunteering for the United Nations that looks intriguing. Matador Volunteer is based on recommendations of Matador Travel users (a social networking site); the site seeks to promote work “by grass-roots organizations and NGOs worldwide, and to connect you with volunteer programs and opportunities that make travel matter.” [LINK]
