At Beyond South America, we believe that volunteering can change the world for the better. Acts of solidarity, global learning, and intercultural exchange break down walls that exist between cultures and in our own minds. Anyone who has ever worked in another country, who has given their time and energy to a good cause, knows that this can be an unforgettable experience, even life-changing. Your own impressions and the ones you leave in others and the learning experiences on both sides, bring the world a bit closer.
