Crowdfunding to Volunteer Abroad

While many volunteers prefer to stay in their own communities, there are some whose interests and passions compel them to volunteer abroad. Volunteering abroad can require investing more than just time and talent -- volunteers often have to foot the bill for their own travel expenses. Airfare, visa processing costs, and lodging can add up very quickly. Many volunteers have used Mightycause to crowdfund once-in-a-lifetime volunteer experiences abroad. Start a fundraiser.
