Volunteer opportunities world-wide. Overview of web-links

Grandpayeti’s list of links: World wide operating Volunteer Organizations.

Please be aware that grandpayeti is only an informer and never responsible, nor accountable, for any negative experience one may have by enrolling into any of these organizations.
Personally grandpayeti despises that one has to pay large fees for being allowed to help others in need.
You be careful about what you chose here!
