"Life changing!"

Very well organized, great communication through every part of the experience, left an impact that changed the trajectory of my life, knowledgable guides, great website to keep your trip organized, useful packing list and itinerary, nothing but good things to say about my GIVE experience

"Incredible travel experience"

Volunteering with GIVE is such an incredible travel experience. I am so grateful for my Tanzania trip. We learned so much about responsible travel, were immersed in local culture, ate amazing food everyday, went on adventures like swimming with dolphins!!, and I met lifelong friends <3 I recommend going on a GIVE trip to everyone! It’s an experience that I’ll never forget and will cherish forever!

"Hawai’i 2023"

I loved how engaging with that communities that we were entering made the experience so much more meaningful and filled with depth and learning. I liked how there was a nice balance between accomplishing work and having fun at the beautiful natural sites we went to. The guides were so kind and inspiring and I got really close with the other people on the trip. <3

"Travel with GIVE Volunteers!!"

I have been to Thailand, Laos, and Washington State with GIVE Volunteers, and all three trips were awesome! In each location, the trip guides were so fun and friendly and they created a very inviting and safe environment for my fellow volunteers/students and I. In Thailand and Laos I learned so much about other cultures, sustainability, and agriculture, and in Washington I got my WFA certification and became a better leader!
Each program had a great balance between volunteering/learning and exploring, and the staff’s attention to detail really showed how much they care about the volunteers/students. GIVE creates such extraordinary, unique, and memorable experiences, and I met life-long friends along the way! I had such a great time volunteering and learning, and could not recommend traveling with the company enough. I look forward to joining more GIVE trips in the future!

"GIVE Hawaii!!"

Had an amazing experience in Hawaii! Met amazing people, life long friends, and learned so much about sustainable travel and how to be a global citizen. Guides were knowledgeable and kind!

"The cultural immersion was incredible"

The cultural immersion was incredible. I never thought I would be accepted into a family or home so quickly.

"The community built around the…"

The community built around the organization. Loved every bit of the experience !

"Finding GIVE changed my life!"

Finding GIVE totally changed my life. I always knew I wanted to travel but didn't know how to make it happen on my own. GIVE gave me the exact experience I was looking for and it couldn't have been easier. I was super nervous to travel across the world alone for the first time but I never even felt alone! From the HQ staff answering all my questions about making me feel comfortable before my trip, to the guides facilitating the most amazing experience, to staying involved with the organization after I returned home, I couldn't have had a better experience.

"Experience Hawaii Like Never Before"

My time in Hawaii with GIVE was incredible! Our accommodations were comfortable, the food was delicious, and the local nonprofits we worked with allowed us to partake in impactful work all around the Big Island. I am most thankful that GIVE allows volunteers the opportunity to speak with and learn from local indigenous leaders about their history and the importance of their land. I have never had such an authentic and eye-opening experience, and I know that I left Hawaii with a deeper understanding of this sacred place.
