Over the last 20 years, we have witnessed first-hand the amazing things our volunteer partners and friends do for our global community. We thought it would be so wonderful to take volunteers to these places, to meet these incredible people and get involved in the projects that are transforming lives across the globe.
We have now partnered with our charity partners who work in orphanages, local villages and communities in education, rescue and conservation projects. Together we are so proud to now offer volunteer programs in 22 countries around the world.
Our Volunteer Holiday Vision is to promote compassion, gratitude and caring within our own communities and towards our global communities. We have created a program that is giving every-day people the opportunity to volunteer at their own comfort level. We want to give every volunteer a memorable and life changing experience. We want them to have a holiday with a real purpose and at the same time significantly increase the support to our volunteer partners. Already, Volunteer Holidays has managed to raise over $55,000 which is donated directly to our Volunteer Holiday charities.
On a personal note, I can't say enough about the incredible work that is being done by our volunteer partners in each country. I hear stories every day of sacrifice and love and this is the world I want to live in and that I want for my children. If our program can help change the lives of the people who participate in our volunteer holidays and those that we help, what more can I ask? Every time I speak to one of our volunteers and hear how it has impacted on their life, it makes me feel incredible. Our program is working and it is exciting beyond belief!
We are really excited about this new concept in travel and can't wait to share Volunteer Holidays with our customers. We encourage you to open your heart and mind to the world of volunteering. The happiness and fulfilment you will experience is truly life-changing.
