Volunteer Abroad with Parrots
Most parrot species are threatened--if not endangered--and a few have become
extinct in the last century. By volunteering abroad with an organization
dedicated to the reintroduction of parrots to their natural environment, you can
help to improve the health of wild parrot populations. |

Why Program Costs Vary so Greatly
If you have searched online for volunteer placements, you quickly learned that
you can spend a thousand dollars or more for a short term volunteer assignment.
Some organizations provide airport pickup, volunteer orientation, language
lessons, and a full range of services. Other organizations welcome your
assistance with their free volunteer programs, but offer no housing or other
services. Due to the wide variety of programs and accommodations, the associated
costs can range from free, to low cost, and up to thousands of dollars per
month. Be
sure to find the volunteer program that best fits your needs, interests, and budget. |

Volunteer with Casa Hogar de los Ninos in Tijuana Mexico. Along with a caring
environment, they provide food, clothing, and shelter for over 50 children and
single mothers. The children’s day is very structured, but volunteers can choose
how they want to help. Assist children with their homework, organize arts and
crafts, or plan special events. There are always construction projects on site
that can use an extra hand. |
