Description

GeoVisions volunteer programs in South Africa are some of the most unique and rewarding opportunities for volunteers, whether you want to spend your time giving back to animals, people, children, schools, or communities as a whole. We have numerous animal programs including hands on work with lions, cheetahs, horse rehabilitation, and a conservation initiative at a wildlife reserve. We also have opportunities working at a medical center in Cape Town, working in a daycare that cares for children from impoverished communities, and helping in rural schools with basic computer skills as well as spending time with the students.
