Bio

A Broader View Volunteers was created on the idea that one person can make a difference. We offer a range of affordable international service projects with the opportunity for cultural immersion abroad. ABV looks for, and collaborates with small non-profit organizations and humanitarian institutions that lack the means to recruit volunteers. An extensive amount of research and time go into each program to ensure the best quality and safety of our destinations, accommodations and projects. Project sites, housing and host families are continuously monitored. ABV screens volunteers, assists with project selection, provides travel planning advice and is responsible for reliable customer service. Quite simply, we do all the legwork. We coordinate all the details and provide wide-ranging support, then send volunteers to projects where they are needed. In the meantime, ABV serves as your advocate - and is here to provide you with the most fulfilling, life changing travel experience possible. http://www.abroaderview.org http://blog.abroaderview.org Twitter: @abroaderview Arranging a program yourself can mean a lot of time and research. There can be uncertainty about the legitimacy of the hosting organizations, and the services they provide. Are the accommodations acceptable? Is the food provided safe to eat? Am I in a safe location? What support am I given while traveling? Will they meet me at the airport? ABV is a placement organization. We provide safe, affordable opportunities to volunteer abroad. We strive to keep our costs to a minimum.
