Good Hope Volunteers offers numerous meaningful volunteer projects throughout South Africa. This huge, fascinating country is rich in natural wonders, culture, and history. Some of our volunteer projects are located in remote areas, allowing you to get a feel for real Africa. It might take you longer to get used to this environment; but once you are hooked, you will want to come back repeatedly. Most of our projects focus on conservation, which involves helping take care of wild animals. In some projects, you can combine conservation with social volunteering. We also offer ocean and marine conservation programs and social and community projects throughout South Africa and Namibia.
