GBMy 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.

GBAmazing experience!!! My GIVE trip to Hawai’i was unforgettable. I loved getting to meet new and like-minded people who have the same interests as me. I am so grateful to have had the opportunity to volunteer with local nonprofit organizations while also getting to experience a new culture. I am thankful for the opportunity I got to learn about the unique Hawaiian agriculture while also being able to help out at local nonprofit farms. The GIVE guides made sure everyone had what they needed and let us all know what to do to make sure we acted in a respectful manner when introduced to different cultural experiences. 💚

GBGIVE Thailand Thailand with GIVE was a life changing experience for me. I was able to get out of my comfort zone while also meeting like minded people and volunteering for important causes. The small hill tribes and local guides were the kindest people and it was very special getting immersed into their culture and learning their way of life. I made very special connections with the students that we taught and it was amazing to see their hard work and love for learning. Also learning how to be a global citizen and making a positive impact on our earth was special when doing things like working in the permaculture lot. Overall this trip was so special and eye opening and I plan to do more trips with GIVE in the future! I also recommend everyone to go on a trip with GIVE.

GBGIVE Tanzania My trip with GIVE to Tanzania was absolutely life-changing. The program gave us the opportunity to be completely immersed in the local culture, while feeling comfortable and safe at all times. The GIVE staff is truly incredible and, along with the locals, are some of the most amazing people I have ever had the privilege to know. This experience forced me outside of my comfort zone in many ways but was ultimately some of the most fun and rewarding weeks of my life. Work hard play hard is the best way to summarize the trip!

GBThe best trip ever This was definitely the best trip I’ve ever been on. It’s much more personal than traveling as a regular tourist. The unforgettable connections you make with the people in the communities you volunteer in make you never want to leave. I’ve learned many lifelong lessons that I will carry on with me for the rest of my life. I will definitely be volunteering again with GIVE.
