Volunteering Around the Globe: Life-Changing Travel Adventures


#434
Title: Volunteering Around the Globe: Life-Changing Travel Adventures
Author: Susan Stone
Publisher: Capital Books
Year: 2008
207 pages

This reference book provides a good starting point for people who would like to volunteer in international settings and aren't sure where to start. The inclusion of Jewish aid organizations is refreshing. There are many personal reports and a good list of initial resources. Structurally, it needs an index; for decision-making purposes, it needs more discussion of how to evaluate whether to volunteer in a corrupt organization or social structure.
