• About Global Volunteers
    Global Volunteers is a private, non-profit (501C-3) tax-exempt organization working at the invitation and under the direction of local leaders to deliver "the 12 Essential Services" to partner communities worldwide. By honoring local problem solving, we engage you in respectful, direct community service. These "people-to-people" initiatives succeed where simply writing a check often fails.

    Our methods of volunteer engagement and program management set the standard for appropriate community service. Global Volunteers takes a comprehensive, integrated approach to community development to catalyze sustained partnerships directed by local leaders, targeting at-risk children. Each program is evaluated frequently, and maintained over the long term. We choose our host partners thoughtfully, and prepare our volunteers carefully.

    Most important, Global Volunteers is led by experts grounded in development to ensure that the work we do genuinely contributes to communities for the better. When you work with us, you maximize your contribution as "servant learner". That's how you change lives - yours and community members'.

The St. Lucia Project

Global Volunteers works with community leaders in Anse la Raye, on the western coast of the island, to help deliver its 12 Essential Services to local families. The St. Lucia Project will demonstrate that local people, with the catalytic assistance of short-term volunteers, can ensure that every young child receives the development assistance they need to thrive.
