TOPIC: VOLUNTEERING (95)
Voluntario Global
http://voluntarioglobal.org/enVoluntario Global is built around a set of ideologies and practices to meet common economic and social needs. It promotes the act of volunteering as a collective practice, an exchange of knowledge and mutual learning; as a two way process, not a charity. At the same time, we work towards an ideal of inclusive economic growth, which means equal opportunities for people to reach their potential, an ethic which values people, and doesn't see them simply as a commodity.

With these needs met, families can put their energy into pursuing a better life, getting an education, giving something better to their children, fulfilling their potential in a country that encourages them to dream.
