Volunteering to immerse, learn, and grow
by: Floriane Di RolloProgram: Volunteer in Surfing in South AfricaI love going surfing with the kids all afternoon. I've learned that no matter what our family/financial situation is, always be humble and kind to others like the children we are with every day.
