Many of us at TREES are former volunteers in the US Peace Corps, and we highly encourage everyone to take part in this unique opportunity.
If you are planning to travel, we can put you in touch with project leader who will likely
be able to meet you along your journey and show off some of the
work they are doing.
While we do not directly offer international volunteer opportunities, if you have already decided that you're going to travel to a developing community to see what's there and what you can do, we will be pleased to provide seeds and training materials, useful contacts, travel and lodging suggestions, some ideas for what to take (and not take) along. If you have time to stop by our offices we can offer you some brief instructions on ways to help the people you visit get the greatest benefit from your assistance.
