A wonderful community for volunteers around the world — for those dreaming of their first adventure, those currently living it, and those who’ve shared their skills in many places. As family members, we celebrate their excitement, support them through moments of worry, and encourage them on their journey toward independence.

Your child is leaving. You’re staying behind. With a head full of questions… Are they ready? What if something goes wrong? Can I really let go? In The Volunteer Lounge, you'll find: - Stories from other parents and families - Tips on safety & staying in touch - and more Embark on this wonderful journey together with your child!
