How you can help!

Between the costs of donations to each organization, travel, accommodations and insurance, the cost of a trip like this is significant. So significant, that we’re relying on the kindness of friends and strangers to help out.

Your contribution will help build affordable housing for families in need in Hungary, assist victims of the Tsunami in Thailand to rebuild their communities, provide food and shelter to Cambodian orphans, support organic farming practices in Costa Rica, teach children English in Belize and continue to respond effectively to the urgent needs of the survivors of Hurricane Katrina.

There are many ways to help.

You can donate to this experience by going to our secure Paypal account here, or by clicking the ChipIn link at the top of the side bar.

If you'd like to designate your donation to a specific program, please include that in the comments line in Paypal.

Have a website? Please link to Voluntourists on your site and we’ll be sure to return the favor.

Have a blog? Blog about us! (But only if you’re going to say nice stuff).

Would your company be interested in supporting us and/or do they provide matching donations? We’re happy to add a company logo to our site, wear a company t-shirt while we toil in the fields and/or talk to people about how their contribution is being put to work.

Gonna buy something on Amazon? Well, please make your purchase through the link at the bottom of our sidebar. No extra charge for you, but a contribution will go to Voluntourists.

Make a donation in memory/honor/celebration of someone. We’ll be sure to make a special recognition of them on our travels.

Say something mean to a co-worker but too chicken to apologize? Cut off someone in traffic this morning? Balance your karma with a donation to Voluntourists.

Have a fundraising idea that we didn’t mention? Share it with us! And please forward our website link to everyone you know!

Thank you so much for stopping by and thanks in advance for your help.
