Volunteer Compass is one of the few volunteer organizations to solely specialise in helping, aiding, assisting and sending volunteers on Marine and Wildlife Conservation projects. We do not send volunteers on HIV projects or to orphanages for example. We do what we know best and are good at. We take pride in being friendly, going that extra mile for our volunteers and providing total back-up. As you wander through our site you'll see we give lots of resources - free resources at that - for all to view. Being prepared, knowing before you go and other such good words are so true. As a Volunteer Compass ambassador, you'll be totally prepared. Being prepared will make your volunteering fun, exciting and seem like second nature. Humanity’s demands exceed our planet’s capacity to sustain Headlines to The Living Planet Report 2008 - Our small blue planet needs help and rather urgently. read more |
