Very Well-Organized, Meaningful Experience

IVHQ provides a checklist of everything you need to get done before your trip, which was very helpful and relieved a lot of stress as someone travelling abroad for the first time. The volunteer opportunities make a meaningful impact and allow participants to be immersed in the community. It was a great opportunity to work on improving my Spanish, so I would highly recommend this program to people looking to improve their second language. Many of the cities that you can volunteer in with IVHQ are not tourist cities, allowing for a more authentic cultural experience and more opportunities to speak another language with native speakers.
