Description: ProWorld Service Corps' group volunteer projects offer individuals a balance of cultural interaction, service work, and a team experience. Volunteers join a team and a host community to work side by side on a focused development project. Private Group Programs are fully customizable from projects to academics to living.

Programs are highly supported by an international staff team and welcoming community partners. ProWorld, founded in 1998, is a true leader in the field of sustainable international development. Projects are chosen based on the needs of communities, specific group interests, and length of program.

Further, ProWorld's on-site Project Coordinators work year round with our host communities assessing needs, thinking creatively, and setting long-term goals for sustainable development and volunteer participation. Enroll now!

Highlights: Real projects...real experience! The focus of your development project is determined by your skills, your interests, and the needs of the local environmental community. Projects form the core of every ProWorld program. Through collaboration and shared learning, members of your team work toward completing a group project.
