Our programs run year-round and are available for 1 to 24 weeks across Africa, Asia, Europe, the Pacific, South and Central America, North America, the Caribbean, and the Middle East. Volunteering with IVHQ is about more than giving back—it’s about growing, learning, and building genuine global connections.

Girls are a powerful force for change in Africa, so investing in adolescent girls is essential to reducing poverty, improving health, and encouraging future economic growth. The Girl Impact initiative of African Impact aims to provide opportunities for adolescent girls in Zambia through education, health, safety, early pregnancy, making a living, and self-confidence. Still, the organization needs enthusiastic volunteers to make this a reality. Volunteers have the opportunity to work in maternal health with a focus on puberty. Volunteers will work within schools and be part of a program that sees direct, measurable results.

Provide Zambian residents with vital medical care while immersing yourself in the unique culture. Volunteers are able to work with medical staff of local clinics that need extra hands in order to gain experience in the medical field. Volunteers are not required to have prior medical knowledge in order to help under-resourced medical clinics in and around Livingstone. During the project, participants will spend their mornings doing one of the following: assisting at a medical clinic, participating in home-based care, attending HIV education and health talks, visiting an elderly home, or spreading awareness of HIV/AIDS education in prisons.

Volunteer and work on a project with local communities this Christmas, and help those a lot less fortunate than you! The project works with disadvantaged children and adults in a number of communities located near Livingstone in Zambia. The mornings are spent supporting kids on a break from school. The project runs a holiday club for up to 100 children. The school also tops up lessons with a class that takes place a few hours each day, giving children extra tuition they badly need. Afternoons are spent focusing on other activities in the community. The project also support adults through farming initiatives, a literacy club, and work in an old people's home. You do not need to have any specific skills to participate in this project. Just bring along your enthusiasm and willingness to get involved. Anyone with experience in child care, education or working with the elderly will be more than welcome. If you have a specific skill that you are able to share, please let us know. You will be asked to send your CV/résumé before being accepted onto this project.
