Volunteering for College CreditFor those enrolled in university, and college study abroad or intern abroad program can be a way to not only receive credit for your volunteering, but pay for it as well. Particularly in North America’s summer months, there is a high demand for volunteers to work through the South American winter. The requirements of each study abroad/internship will vary greatly from university to university, and department to department. Most students will be required to log their work, and the university will require contact with your host organization to verify that you are fulfilling your duties. While internships are generally a great resume booster, an international internship with a non-profit is an excellent way to make you standout when applying for jobs after graduation.
