Gap Year Abroad

Many young people take part in Gap Year projects with Projects Abroad before starting university or even after graduation. All our volunteer projects run from one month upwards, so you can choose whether to spend all or just part of your gap year volunteering abroad.

Volunteer Vacations and Voluntourism

Voluntourism - also known as Volunteer Vacations - are a growing trend. As part of your next vacation or career break, travel alone or with a partner to volunteer with us. We work in Latin America, Asia, Africa and Eastern Europe. View a full list of destination countries.

Peace Corps Alternatives

The Peace Corps and Projects Abroad have important similarities and differences. Each program offers volunteer opportunities, but you may find that some projects are more appropriate for you. For more information on what we offer, please see our Projects or Destinations pages.

Short Term Volunteer Options

Short term volunteer options are quickly becoming a significant source of volunteer man-hours around the world. Even if you are currently employed, a high school or university student, or a recent graduate, you can probably still do one of our projects.

Volunteering Overseas and International Volunteer Opportunities

We specialize in making international volunteer work possible for as many people as possible. For more information on teen and high school trips, please see our 2-Week Specials.

Volunteer Service Trips Abroad

Group Volunteer Service Trips are available for teens and college students over the summer, spring break, or winter break. Go by yourself and join a group, or go with your friends. For more information on teen and high school trips, please see our 2-Week Specials.

Summer Placements for High School and College Students

Summer placements are available in all our destinations for students in high school and college. You can choose to volunteer during the summer for one or two months; or, if you are 16 to 19, you can also choose one of our 2-Week Specials projects.
