About Program

As the capital of Morocco, Rabat is home to many NGOs, government organizations, embassies, and multinational corporations. It is a large sprawling city interconnected with smaller neighboring communities and villages. Rabat is a destination for many of the nation's poor, immigrants, and refugees looking for employment and opportunity.

Consider your impact: Volunteering abroad can be a rewarding experience for both volunteers and local communities, and at Go Overseas, we believe all volunteers should have the resources to make informed decisions about the type of volunteer project they want to partake in. However, despite best intentions, some organizations offering placements in orphanages may unknowingly place children in danger. You can read about the potential dangers of orphanage volunteering here.
