Thanks comment. For many years I have been volunteering within the US. I am an 18 year old college student trying to accomplish good deeds whenever and where ever I can. I volunteered all around the city of Detroit while I was in middle school. Throughout high school I still continued to give my time and volunteer. I am a freshman in college and a tutor at a low income housing program and give 6 hrs weekly. I have traveled for a couple of months around the US after high school to help people in need. Now I want to open my horizons and move on to a country that has people even less fortunate than Americans, my goal is to help one place at a time. Going to South Africa for farming is just a start. I hope that when I get there I find other opportunities such as AIDS clinics, and educational programs to get involved with. Sorry for the lengthly response.

Thanks,

I have about 5000 volunteer hours
