Project Directory
Welcome to the world of international voluntary service! VFP offers placement in over 3000 projects each year worldwide. 80% of these projects occur during the summer months. We offer placement in a smaller number of projects in the "off-season" (October - April) mainly in the developing world. Click here to view the 2010 Project Directory.

How To Search for Volunteer Projects:
2010 Open Project Searchable Directory lets you select specific fields such as countries, date range, project types, term of service and/or keywords to assist your searching. This version of the Directory is updated almost daily and shows only projects that are currently OPEN.
If you are not familiar with how to read the project descriptions, you can find a guide here.
Projects are similar from year to year. You can see what was offered in 2009 by searching the 2009 IVS ARCHIVE Project Directory. This version of the Directory lists ALL projects from 2009 and has search features similar to the Open Project Directory.
US Projects
Search for projects in the US just as you would in another country. Search the 2010 Open Projects Directory by entering the dates, country (USA) and project type just as you would for an international project. Note: 2 to 3 week USA projects run June to September while some USA medium-term projects (MTV) are available year-round.

"During our last few days, exhausted by teaching, my sister decided to help me out with the mural. The school also brought in a local temple painter named Desh, who was very patient, and had the best attitude when it came to all my requests. On our last day at the school, I completed the giant butterfly that loomed over the pond."
