Grassroots Organization Volunteering in Hawaii (USA)

Travel to Hawai’i with GIVE and explore stunning waterfalls, active volcanoes, and lush rainforests on the Big Island. Our projects focus on giving back to the ‘Aina (land) and Moana (sea) through forest restoration, marine conservation, and regenerative farming projects. Work with local nonprofits to learn about indigenous culture & land stewardship practices. You will also be able to snorkel with green sea turtles, hike across volcanic craters, stargaze, see the sky as you've never seen before, and talk stories with indigenous leaders about their sacred lands, culture, and history. Enhance your trip with our optional add-ons - Scuba conservation: Receive PADI Open Water certification and scuba dive to protect our oceans - Academic course in EcoTourism: earn 3-6 college credits while traveling with GIVE!

Are you planning a trip to Hawaii and looking for a meaningful way to contribute to the local community during your visit? The Institute for Human Services (IHS) welcomes travelers to join us in our mission to provide tailored solutions for those in crisis and empower homeless individuals toward greater self-direction and responsibility. Located in Hawaii, IHS offers a variety of volunteer opportunities for individuals and groups alike. Whether you're interested in assisting with meal service at our shelters, providing administrative support in our offices, or lending your expertise in our health clinic or employment program, there's a role for you to make a difference. As a volunteer with IHS, not only will you have the chance to directly impact the lives of those we serve, but you'll also be contributing to the vibrant spirit of aloha that defines Hawaii.
