Voluntourism gives people a chance to see the world while making a difference.

Its important when evaluating the who, what, where, how, and why of volunteer travel to ask the question: Who is this charity work actually helping?

Projects should be picked by the tangible benefits they provide to local communities, as well as their cost, location, and, of course, the visitor experience.
