Volunteer Experience In India When I was looking at volunteer opportunities in India I discovered A Broader View. From the moment I first interacted with this organization I was impressed with their professionalism and their service orientation. My questions, pre-trip, were answered promptly and thoroughly. As my time of departure neared I was supplied with logistic information, cultural considerations, and tips for what I would need to bring from home. On arrival I continued to be impressed with ABV. My host family accommodations were clean, comfortable and my host family was welcoming and kind. I was provided with three healthy and delicious meals a day. My program coordinator went above and beyond what was required to make sure that I had the support I needed in my volunteer placement at an orphanage. In addition to the necessities, she provided enrichment activities such as cooking classes, sari tying, Hindi lessons, yoga classes and many more add-ons. While I was in country, A Broader View staff checked in with me on a weekly basis and made sure that things were going according to plan. I felt safe, well cared for and valued. I knew if I had any issues A Broader View would would step in to help, as needed. I would highly recommend that any one looking to volunteer choose A Broader View. I intend to volunteer again and I fully expect to find that A Broader View will provide the same high quality experience that I found on my first volunteer assignment.

My experience in Belize was amazing My experience in Belize was amazing! I had such a great time with the kids, and the orphanage's staff were welcoming, accommodating, and incredibly friendly.

Go and Volunteer Abroad - and Select A Broader View Volunteers! Back in August 2017, I was extremely fortunate to identify a wonderful non-profit volunteer organization, A Broader View Volunteers (ABV), in my desire to perform my first orphanage volunteer work in Ghana Africa. They connected me with a very special group of people from a refugee camp in Ghana who stole my heart. I fell in love with the children and consider those running the orphanage/ school very dear friends. At the end of my assignment, a poignant life changing experience, I was counting down the days to return which occurred August 2019. From my first trip onward, I stay connected with these remarkable people to support them financially and in many other ways as their needs are many. To present day, ABV continues to be instrumental and supportive of my requests on behalf of this orphanage. Over and above both assignments that ABV very effectively prepared me for, they have been a true partner that continues to support of the many needs that this orphanage has on behalf of many beautiful children. I am so fortunate to have found ABV and will always be grateful that they placed me exactly where I belonged.

A Broader View was very thorough in… A Broader View was very thorough in helping us get set up for our trip to Nepal. Based on our experience ABV is also quite selective and diligent when it comes to taking on their coordinators that host the travelers in each country. The staff was very helpful, polite, and driven to making this world a better place.

Life Changing Experience Two of my colleagues and I wanted to spend some time giving back in the world. ABV matched us to the right experience in a children's home in Belize, they helped us with our documentation, they educated us on cultural expectations and the communication between our group before, during and after the trip, was top notch. We have since been to the same home over 25 times in the last five years, it was a life changing experience. Sarah and her team continue to support the home and our efforts, we are so appreciative.
