What about the organisation?
IFRE is a
non-profit 501(c) 3 organization based in Dallas, Texas, USA. They founded
IFRE’s volunteer abroad program in 2005 after realizing the need for safe and
affordable volunteer abroad programs. So far, nearly 3000 volunteers have
participated in their meaningful volunteer programs in Asia, Africa and Latin
America. IFRE is headquartered in Dallas, Texas and has multiple offices with
100+ experienced field employees throughout the 18 developing countries they
support in Asia, Africa and Latin America. The volunteer
assignments are not one-size-fits-all. No matter what country volunteers
choose, IFRE offers the most-unique and customized volunteer projects. Their
project placement process considers the personal interests, skills and
experience of each volunteer. Their local in-country coordinator explores the
best local organizations and handpicks the perfect program for each volunteer.
Volunteers receive detailed information of their project, including living
arrangements and food, prior to arrival
