With 10+ years of experience in sustainable travelling, we're your top choice for volunteering worldwide. Whether you're on a gap year, seeking to enhance your skills & passions, or wanting to do something different on your holidays, our friendly approach will make you feel at home.

What we stand for
We believe in transforming lives through volunteering, adventures and meaningful journeys. Our mission is to create a positive impact on the environment and communities by offering unique eco-friendly experiences that combine travel, learning, and giving back.
Plant a Tree Program
Our "Plant a Tree" program ensures that for every sale, a tree is planted. This initiative is crucial for the planet as it helps combat deforestation, supports biodiversity, and contributes to reducing carbon dioxide levels. By restoring forests, we are fostering a healthier environment and creating a sustainable future for generations to come.
Sustainable Exploration
At Travel Roots, we champion sustainable exploration, ensuring every adventure respects and nurtures the natural environment. Our commitment to eco-friendly practices means choosing paths that contribute to the preservation of ecosystems, leveraging travel as a powerful tool for environmental stewardship.
Community Empowerment
Empowering local communities lies at the heart of what we do. Travel Roots is dedicated to fostering long-term partnerships that support local economies and uplift indigenous cultures. Our volunteering opportunities and projects are designed to transfer skills, knowledge, and resources, enabling communities to thrive alongside our travelers.
Educational Enrichment
We believe that education is the cornerstone of conservation and sustainable development. Travel Roots offers immersive courses and programs that expand horizons, providing insights into wildlife conservation, environmental preservation, and community resilience. Our journeys are not just about seeing the world but understanding it and contributing to its welfare.

Something for Everyone, Wherever You're At
No two volunteers are the same, and that’s exactly why we don’t believe in one-size-fits-all volunteering.
At Travel Roots, we offer a wide range of ethical volunteer programs abroad, designed to suit different budgets, ages, experience levels, and motivations. Whether you’re taking your first step into volunteering, planning a long-term gap year, travelling as a family, or looking for a structured internship or student placement, there’s a program that fits where you’re at.

Not Sure Where To Start?
Choosing the right volunteer program abroad can feel overwhelming at first — especially when there are so many destinations, causes, and ways to get involved. Some people begin with a place they’ve always wanted to visit, others with a cause they feel drawn to, and some simply with a timeframe that fits their life right now. However you arrive here, there’s no expectation to have everything figured out from the start.
You’re welcome to browse our entire range of volunteer opportunities at your own pace — from low-cost volunteer programs and internships abroad to gap year volunteering, family programs, and student placements. And if at any point you’d like help, reassurance, or guidance, you’re always welcome to reach out to us. We’re here to listen, answer questions honestly, and help you find a volunteer experience that genuinely aligns with your values and goals.
