Volunteer abroad with Cross Cultural Solutions

Cross Cultural Solutions, a USCCD member organization, has several volunteer programs coming up soon. If you want the opportunity to get involved and do some volunteer work in a beautiful country, this is your chance to take advantage of what Cross Cultural Solutions has to offer.

The Volunteer Abroad experience provided by CCS allows you to travel abroad and volunteer for a period of time that can range from 2-12 weeks. Prices vary depending on your trip, but anyone can enroll online with a deposit of $275 (which is tax deductible by the way). CCS also has internships and a short 1-week trip for those more concerned with time call an Insight Abroad trip.

Let CCS explain a little about what they do:

"Volunteer Abroad is the perfect short-term international volunteer experience, designed with flexibility and individual attention in mind so we can meet your needs and interests while ensuring that your time spent is effectively contributing to a positive impact on the community."

Volunteer Abroad is available in 12 different countries. Their upcoming trips are full, but CCS has a waiting list in case a spot opens up. But don't let that hold you back, there are several programs year-round.

On October 12 you could apply to volunteer in Cartago, Costa Rica. If that's too close to the deadline, then travel to Salvador, Brazil or New Delhi, India or Cape Town, South Africa or Xi'an (see video below), China on November 5. Or, maybe head on out to Rabat, Morroco on November 12.

If you want to get involved, this is your opportunity. The Volunteer Abroad program that CCS offers allows you to choose how long you want to volunteer abroad with programs that rotate throughout the year. Pick a country, pick a date and volunteer!
