A Caring Community The GIVE guides and volunteers made this trip so special. I was constantly surrounded by passionate and loving individuals who made me feel welcomed into the group. Throughout the trip, we met community members who were also so passionate about their work. You could learn so much from each and every one of them!

Go GIVE! I had the best experience with GIVE! I decided to go with GIVE volunteers for my first trip out of the country without my parents and I am so glad I did. Not only did I get to experience parts of Thailand I would not have been able to otherwise, but I got to do so without ever worrying about where I was staying, how I was going to get there or what I was going to eat. This trip truly changed my life. I got to experience Thai culture and make connections with kids who barely spoke english. The guides were incredible and I was continually surprised at how intentional each and every part of the trip was. I could not recommend this organization more - I am already saving for my next trip! Also, I have gotten to meet more give people as they come to recruit at my school and everyone is just as kind and fun as my guides in Thailand. Love love love Give!!!

My GIVE trip to Laos was unforgettable My GIVE trip to Laos was unforgettable. From teaching the kids of Sop Chem English and cleaning/planting in the permaculture lot to learning about the culture of Laos, it was two weeks I’ll never forget. It was so eye opening to experience such a different way of life from that which is lived in the States. I gained a new perspective on self-respect and had an incredible time embarking on new adventures every day. I can’t wait for my future GIVE trips!

Amazing Trip! This trip was so awesome, it had such an impact on me. I had so much fun and met so many lifelong friends. Everyone on the tip was so much fun and like-minded. When booking the trip I was concerned about safety during the trip and honestly I felt so safe the whole trip, you have rides everywhere and stay in safe accommodations. The people at give answered all of questions and were so helpful when I booked my trip and even before that. This trip was so amazing and everyone at give was so helpful and amazing!

My GIVE experience I absolutely LOVED my GIVE trip. All the people were so welcoming, it was well organized, and the communication was stellar. The volunteer work felt meaningful and the activities that we did were super super fun. My one complaint is that it was not enough service. A 14 day trip with 6 days of service should not be advertised as a volunteer trip. If I had one thing to change about give, it would be to add at least 2 more volunteer days.
