Voluntourism


More and more people are planning trips that allow them to give back to communities while they travel. Travelers feel that they should give something back to their host countries rather than simply hopping through them for a few weeks.

Some popular trips include working with elephants at a rescue center in Thailand, volunteering with underprivileged children in Brazil, etc.

Even Whole Foods Market’s Whole Planet Foundation is giving away a volunteer trip for 2.
