At Passion Passport, we pride ourselves on being an inclusive, creative community of intentional travelers. A large part of this involves giving back to the places we visit and leaving a positive imprint on the world. There is no shortage of volunteer opportunities abroad, however, it can oftentimes be daunting knowing which to support. At the end of the day wcan all do something, however small, to make the world a better place.
