Cross-Cultural Solutions

For twenty years, Cross-Cultural Solutions has aimed to create a sense of improved understanding and shared humanity in the world through international volunteer opportunities. We know that the best approach to international volunteering—the only approach—is one designed by the community. Our Mission is to operate volunteer programs around the world in partnership with sustainable community initiatives, bringing people together to work side-by-side while sharing perspectives and fostering cultural understanding. We are an international nonprofit organization with no political or religious affiliations. Our Vision is of a world where people value cultures different from their own, are aware of global issues, and are empowered to effect positive change. Cross-Cultural Solutions is a social enterprise founded in 1995. Each year, thousands of people participate in our volunteer programs in Africa, Asia, and Latin America.
