Mission:
The vision of the Global Volunteer Network (GVN) is to connect people with communities in need. We do this by supporting the work of local community organisations in countries through the placement of international volunteers.
GVN currently has volunteer opportunities available through our partner organizations in Alaska, Cambodia, China, Costa Rica, Ecuador, El Salvador, Ghana, Honduras, India, Kenya, Nepal, New Zealand, Philippines, Romania, Russia, Rwanda, South Africa, South Dakota, Tanzania, Thailand, Uganda, and Vietnam. The network continues to expand with new programs currently being researched and assessed.
Volunteer work is a great way to contribute to the global community and also fosters personal growth. The number of people volunteering through GVN also continues to grow. In 2002 we placed 250 volunteers, in 2003 we placed 720 volunteers. In 2006 we placed almost 2000 volunteeers. Our goal for 2007 is to place 2600 volunteers.
