Elephant Orphanage, Kenya
Angela Rutherford
1. There are loads of organisations and good causes to suit you and your beliefs.
2. It's a great way to give back to society, if you've got some spare time and can afford to be unpaid.
3. It gives you the possibility to really experience the culture and learn the language or dialect.
4. You don't have to commit to a full year - it's quite flexible.
5. You can get stuck into admin work, physical work or project work, whatever your skills.
