Global Service Corps   

Global Service Corps (GSC) is a nonprofit international volunteer organization providing service-learning opportunities for people worldwide to live and work abroad in Thailand and Tanzania. Programs are offered year-round from two weeks to six months. Enjoy a true cultural immersion by staying in a homestay with local families, while working hand-in-hand with local counterparts. Personalized service-learning programs, including HIV/AIDS Prevention, Sustainable Agriculture, Healthcare, English Instruction, Buddhist Immersion, and the Seeds of Sustenance Fellowship, begin with in-depth training sessions, and provide rewarding hands-on challenges for volunteers. As an accredited NGO with a complete in-country staff, Global Service Corps has become an established part of each community it serves, and tailors its development programs to offer the most benefit to the community, while providing an unforgettable experience for its volunteers. Volunteers with limited schedules can participate in a two-week introduction to service-learning in both Thailand and Tanzania. The two-week programs often seem to fly by, but offer great exposure to international development in a short span of time. In Tanzania, two-week programs include an orientation followed by a week of project work in HIV/AIDS prevention or two weeks of orientation and training in Sustainable Agriculture. Two week programs in Thailand offer projects in Education, Health Care, and Buddhist Immersion.

Volunteer in Jamaica   

Assist with community development projects in the fabled Blue Mountains. See your efforts transform a village! As the birthplace of Global Volunteers' service programs, Jamaica's mountain villages have welcomed us for over two decades. Volunteers have helped in many ways: building footbridges, painting classrooms and community centers, and occasionally by performing dental extractions, well-baby exams, and outreach to home-bound seniors. We invite you to serve this economically poor, isolated area. You'll find the tropical vistas of the travel brochures, certainly. But more, you'll discover resilient villagers who'll captivate you with their optimistic outlook and surprising resourcefulness. Discover the REAL Jamaica in her people
