Volunteer Opportunity description

Free trip to Nicaragua? We are looking for dynamic individuals located throughout the U.S. to promote our Volunteer Abroad Program! NICA's Volunteer Abroad Program is based on a voluntourism model enabling participants to be immersed in a unique cultural experience in Nicaragua while helping the sustainability of the community. We host college students and adult travelers alike who are interested in experiencing more through traveling! The program can be used for college credit or just for personal fulfillment. More details can be found here: http://nicafund.org/volunteer/.

Here is the best part: we are asking volunteers located throughout the U.S. to coordinate groups of at least 4 people to travel to our volunteer house (located on the beach) to stay for one - two weeks. The volunteer will be given the same amount of time coordinated at no cost! For example, you get a group of friends or acquaintances together to come down, and we will take care of your stay for you while you are in Nicaragua (food, housing, in-country travel).

Another great part...most of the participants in NICA's Volunteer Abroad Program have been able to pay for their entire trip to our volunteer house through our page at Crowdrise: http://www.crowdrise.com/nicafund! So selling the idea to your friends and family is easy. Who does not want to travel to a great location and have supporters take care of the costs?

This is the MOST REWARDING volunteer experience you will find! Get four friends together and come experience Nicaragua for free!
