Volunteer Abroad & Make a REAL Difference - From US$175!

Find out why more and more people are choosing to become a Love Volunteer! Love Volunteers is the most affordable way to volunteer and help local communities in developing countries! Why are we cheaper than other organisations? Firstly, we are just a handful of passionate people working hard to help volunteers and local communities around the world. We don't have huge overheads - no company cars, no downtown office - we're just volunteers who knew we could do a better job. Secondly, we work with local organisations wherever we can to keep administration costs to a minimum and also to feed as much money and skills into the local communities where we operate. All of Love Volunteers partner organisations have been fully vetted to ensure that, not only does a genuine need for assistance exist, but that the environments that we place our volunteers are safe and of high quality. Choose from one or more of our 200+ amazing community-based programs in 37 developing countries around the world. Every program has been personally visited by one of our dedicated staff members and is regularly audited to ensure it meets our high standards in terms of safety, sustainability, and local impact.

My stay in Cape Town was truly a life-changing experience. From the moment I arrived, Magister made sure I felt welcomed and prepared for my stay. The organizers were very supportive and organized my accommodation and work place which exceeded my expectations in every way. I loved my host family and role as a teacher assistant and child care worker. I connected with locals and other volunteers from around the world and built friendships that I will cherish forever. I would highly recommend this program to anyone looking to make a positive impact while exploring one of the most beautiful cities in the world. Cape Town’s breathtaking beauty left an indelible mark on my heart so that I hope to return someday!
