Top 3 ethical summer volunteering opportunities
Volunteering makes you feel great and will spark interest from future employers. When done ethically, you make a direct, positive impact on the people you help. At Quest Overseas, we work together with our local project partners to ensure that our teams of international volunteers work efficiently and responsibly. It’s a two-way deal, you learn to work with African or South American local project staff who open your eyes to their distinct cultures, as you share yours with them.
We still have spaces left on the following three overseas project teams:

Rwanda Summer
Do something different! 
Experience the beauty of Rwanda and improve conditions for kids left to the streets of Kigali at the same time. We are anti-orphanage voluntourism, however you can still have a huge positive impact on the lives of the defenceless.
Volunteer ethically.
