Major Volunteer Organizations

Interested in volunteering with the AmeriCorps, Peace Corps and other

similar organizations? Take a look at the major opportunities from the Peace

Corps to AmeriCorps; MBA Enterprise to Cross Cultural Solutions. Find out

what's hot for college volunteers.

Peace Corps: Places over 7,000 volunteers a year. Commitments are for two

years, though it is possible to extend them. Check out their comprehensive

web site for more details: www.peacecorps.gov

MBA Enterprise: The Peace Corps for the MBA crowd. Places recent MBA grads

in positions to act as management and business consultants. Currently

heavily focused in central Asia and Eastern Europe. Check out the site for

more information on postings, qualifications, and how to apply:

www.mbaec-cdc.org

Cross Cultural Solutions: The " mini peace corps, " operating in 10 different

countries. Volunteer opportunities are short term only (usually 3 weeks) and

can be a good way to get your feet wet and see if development work is really

for you. Visit the well-organized web site: www.crossculturalsolutions.org

American Friends Service Committee: The Quakers. Has a handful of domestic

as well as global (mostly Latin America) opportunities. www.afsc.org

Earth Watch: Organizes " expeditions " where participants get involved in

local development and environment issues. Not exactly volunteering, but a

fascinating way to see development and conservation in action up close.

Warning -- expensive! www.earthwatch.org

in 11 countries. www.volunteertravel.com.
