Community Service Volunteers:  Cape Town, South Africa

Highlights: Cape Town is rated as one of the most beautiful cities in the world and for good reason: few cities are home to white sandy beaches, scenic hiking trails, spectacular ocean views, and a 1,086 metre tall mountain!

Cape Town is also a city of sharp contrasts, where you can explore issues of social change and diversity and learn about new cultures.

Connect-123's Community Service Volunteers, who primarily work with disadvantaged youth, make a lasting, tangible impact on local communities.

Qualifications: Volunteer opportunities are available for students interested in mentoring / tutoring as well as for experienced counselors and community service workers.
