Are you looking for a different kind of vacation this year?
Whatever your reason for volunteering abroad, Operation Groundswell is your best option for an exciting adventure while making a genuine difference in the world. Our ‘Big Kids’ programs are designed for adults looking for a fantastic way to travel and have an impact. Compared to our programs for university students and grads, ‘Big Kids’ trips are shorter, more structured, and much more comfortable, yet still remain true to our off-the-beaten-path philosophy.
Volunteers are not simply dropped into a random volunteer placement halfway around the world. Instead, you will travel in a small, intimate group of like-minded adults with knowledgeable and experienced guides who understands the region intimately. The program is a combination of meaningful community work with our local partner non-profits and exciting sight-seeing trips. Take a look at our inaugural programs in the Middle East and Peru for more details.
