PROJECTS ABROAD OLDER VOLUNTEER PROGRAM
Headquarters in New York, NY, USA and Toronto, ON, Canada.
Program Description
"You’ll get to know other volunteers at social activities and local trips. Our working holidays abroad for over 50s have fixed start and end dates. They follow set itineraries, so you don’t have the hassle of organizing your trip from scratch. You’ll live with a host family to share their way of life and immerse in the local community."
"Our volunteering holidays for over 50s are supported by Projects Abroad staff who help you get the most out of your trip. This level of support takes the stress out of living abroad, so you can focus on what matters to you."
