ABroaderView staff and volunteers Matthew and Luz Sharp enjoyed a party celebrating “Day for the Disabled” in Hanoi. This is a new program recently added to Hanoi and the night was full of singing and dancing, happiness and love. Matthew and Luz produced the “Salsa” dance for the crowd and ABV Director Terry entertained with his painful version of “Let it Be”. The real stars were the trainees at the center who could actually sing beautifully. Needless to say a great time was had by all; the only sad part was that it had to end. From Luz, currently in Vietnam with ABroaderView project.

I had been researching many different options for volunteering abroad and knew immediately that A Broader View was who I wanted to use. Going by myself, my biggest selling point was that they have project coordinators in country and basically every potential worry was taken care of–you get picked up and dropped off at the airport, your home-stay and meals are included, and you get to choose when you go, for how long, and which project you want to do. I couldn’t choose between programs, so I decided to do back-to-back trips to Honduras and Costa Rica. All my questions were answered fully (and believe me, I had a lot), the costs were broken down so there were……

Upon my arrival at House Net, I was immediately introduced to a group of extremely energetic toddlers. Jumping, spitting, pinching, hair-pulling toddlers. These were my charges.
After playing with a couple of the kids for less than an hour, it was very touching when they began referring to me as Mami. Here I was, a teenager who spoke little more Spanish than these toddlers, and they were placing me on a maternal pedestal of glory. I had a lot to live up to

I enjoyed my time in Zambia. At the moment I would recommend spending time at the orphanage as this is where I believe you can make the greatest difference. Although this house is thankfully well supported with donations for food, medical care and clothing

We are frequently asked about age restrictions in our programs. Since our ABV programs are individually tailored, we welcome active middle age and retirees into our programs. We value your life experience and appreciate the skills and maturity that you can share with others. Volunteer Testimonial: Tim McKinney (Chicago, IL) …If you dream of volunteering, but are waiting for the perfect time, the opportunity may pass. There will never be a “perfect” time. If you wait too long, health and ambulatory issues may intervene to keep you from having a magnificent and even life-changing experience. Volunteer now and enrich your life and the lives of children who will fill your heart!”

Tip for future volunteers… Money donations are best. Bring lots of high level of sunscreen. Caye Caulker and the ruins are a must see. Personal Paragraph (Testimonial): Thank for your this wonderful experience. I know the students I brought with me are forever changed by this opportunity
