There was a time when only a handful of organizations offered volunteering abroad organizations to limited destinations. The programs where limited and so were the reach and the scope. Today, that is no longer the case. Thanks to organizations like IFRE Volunteers, which has a strong web presence, you can easily search for volunteer programs in far flung destinations like Nepal and Xi’an in China and actually go there to experience the culture and work to uplift lives.
IFRE was started in 2005 after realizing the need for volunteers' help in developing countries. Affordability and quality are two core components of IFRE's Volunteer abroad programs. Before starting the programs, the staffs of IFRE had visited many developing countries and developed many relationships with local orphanages, schools, NGO, governments and local people. Because of the extensive, today young volunteers are enjoying the fruits of their work and can enroll in such programs like Volunteer Sri Lanka and Volunteer Work Uganda.
