Leave Your Impact On The World
Join our 10-month volunteer abroad program in the Caribbean, Brazil, and Africa
PASSION FOR SOCIAL CHANGE
Our Program
At Richmond Vale Academy, we believe everyone has the power to change the world. During our 10-month volunteer abroad program, you will become a proactive force in teaching and implementing projects in some of the poorest countries in the world.
Together with your team, you will lead by example and raise awareness for social injustice, while mobilizing people to participate in actions that better their community. You’ll help build ecological home gardens, secure better health resources, teach family health and development skills in schools, and much more. All while immersing yourself in the culture around you and making memories with new friends who are equally as passionate about social change as you are.

What Our Community Volunteers Say
10 Months To Make A Difference
What you can expect during your climate activist program
Volunteers start their journey at Richmond Vale Academy in St Vincent and the Grenadines. During this period, participants take part in projects that help develop a variety of skills directly needed during the subsequent months of their program.
Teams are posted in local Brazilian or African communities and hit the ground running to enact lasting change for the local people. Through various projects, you will tackle the root causes of poverty and help build sustainable and resilient communities.
Following your six months of community work, you will return to Richmond Vale Academy to reflect on your experiences. Your team will share findings and evaluate the effectiveness and impact of the work you completed.
