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!!!

Indescribable It is to hard to put into words how amazing this trip was! The guides who truly cared about each and every one of us, and individually facilitated our own self-growth. The countless amazing activities that were organized for us to enjoy, and fit so perfectly into the trip. I felt that we were truly culturally immersed, and there was a lot of mutual respect between us and the communities we were involved in. It was so easy to know that everything was arranged for us, including the most delicious food! It allowed me to really engage myself in the work and fun that we were doing. Meeting like-minded people from all over the world was such a special and beautiful experience.

I’ve never had an experience as amazing… I’ve never had an experience as amazing as the Nicaragua give trip. I can’t imagine traveling without give in the future. The people are amazing and they make you feel safe. You create great friendships and memories.

GIVE 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.

GIVE 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!
