has anybody on here every been to any of the 3rd world countires to volenteer? if so what organisation did you go with etc.
I have looked at a few and they all cost £1000 for a month and so on, now theres not a chance i can afford to do it like that so if anybody know what sort of charties i should be lookin into where they cover costs ect , if you could let me know it would be great!!

im at uni so instead of sitting on the xbox all summer id be very intrested in going somewhere to help them with construction of schools ect, im an electrician by trade doing an engineering degree so could possibly be of some use to them in that way or even just basic building skills.

has anybody else thought about doing anything like this also ?

you could always ask your NUS office for advice. I wouldnt mind doing some chairty work for wildlife, but im too scared that i would knock the shit out of the people causing all that harm if i saw them face to face.
