Interested in volunteering overseas? Each year, HELP International sends volunteers and interns abroad to Peru, Uganda, India, Nepal, Cambodia, Fiji, and Greece, where they plan and implement service and development projects. Volunteers may spend anywhere from four weeks to three months in-country depending on their schedule and availability. Shorter 8-10 day programs are also available several times a year. HELP International participants must be between 18-34 years unless otherwise approved. Many volunteers receive internship credit for their experience abroad.

An integral part of HELP’s model entails recruiting multidisciplinary teams of students and young professionals to holistically design and execute development projects that lead to greater social impact. Our methodology is one that believes strongly that every academic or professional field is relevant, important, and critical in the global fight against poverty.

HELP International’s field interns are provided unique opportunities to put theory into practice and gain real life experience related to their academia or professional career aspirations. Given the tremendous diversity of applicants we get year after year we are constantly facilitating different options for our volunteers to gain the most out of their time abroad.

About HELP International
The mission of HELP International is to empower people to fight global poverty through sustainable, life-changing development programs. Our model facilitates sustainable development programs overseas that impact the lives of both community members with whom we work and HELP volunteers and interns. We strive to ensure that our programs allow the people we work with to become self-sufficient rather than dependent on others to meet their daily needs. HELP International's goal is to provide a contextualized high-impact and sustainable development program, yet able to be carried out in a relatively short period of time. With our diverse teams formed from people of all backgrounds we are able implement a very holistic approach to development using rapid evaluation to ensure community needs are being met. Every project HELP executes is done in collaboration with a local partnership in-country. HELP partnerships include international and domestic NGOs, local governments, schools, hospitals, health clinics, community leaders, and other social entrepreneurs. Our multi-faceted approach to development allows us to facilitate projects catering to a wider range of fields and disciplines . In any given country, HELP International develops , executes, and monitors grass-root projects in areas related to public health promotion, health campaigns and outreaches, medical support, micro-business mentoring, income generating activities, English teaching, teacher training, orphanage support, at-risk youth programs, female empowerment, agriculture, etc. Our unique model allows college-aged volunteers, interns, and working young professionals to contribute and catalyze the efforts of local partners on the ground. HELP International aims to assist relatively inexperienced and mostly academically trained participants to become social entrepreneurs who understand the complexities of poverty. Our social entrepreneurs have gone on to be a force of change in everything from the non-profit sector, to public office, the armed forces and even the corporate world.
