Corporate Volunteering Group Trips

Starting in 1992, we began sending people all around the world to leave a positive impact on local communities. In 2011, we started to focus on group trips, working with a wide range of organisations.

Now, Projects Abroad runs bespoke corporate group volunteer opportunities, offering rewarding team-building adventures. Whether as a reward for your employees or a way of contributing to your corporate social responsibility, we can tailor a trip for you.

Here are some of our best corporate volunteer trips:

Why Choose Projects Abroad for Your Next International Trip?

The modern employee doesn’t just go after higher wages. They want to work for a company that is forward-thinking, value-driven and committed to a team environment.

By joining group volunteer trips, you help your company stand out as a fantastic place to work. You’ll motivate your employees while leaving a positive impact on the communities you visit.

When you book a group trip with us, your trip will be:

Safe: We provide 24/7 staff support from the moment volunteers arrive. Not only are we a Learning Outside the Classroom Quality Badge holder, but our placements are thoroughly researched, safety audited, and risk assessed in line with the British Standard BS8848 for the Adventure Travel Sector. Through our safety procedures, we ensure everyone feels safe and secure at all times while taking part in both educational and adventurous activities.
Hassle-Free: We do most of the organisation, so you don’t have to. We aim to take the stress out of travel, supporting your role as a group leader. Planning a trip abroad has never been easier with our hassle-free approach.
Impactful: Our trips aren’t typical holidays, they’re designed to leave a lasting impact on local communities while helping volunteers develop skills.
Flexible: Every group is different. Let’s discuss how we can cater to your needs and build a trip that meets your needs. Choose where you go, when you go, how long you travel, and what volunteer work you complete.

Corporate Social Responsibility

Corporate Social Responsibility (CSR) has evolved over the last 30 years. Companies are taking greater responsibility for their effects on environmental and social wellbeing, with international corporate volunteering being integral to this.

Go beyond simple donations. Launch annual trips for your employees, whether through a lottery, a selection process, or as a reward for your highest achievers. This will result in better company engagement, increased levels of pride and satisfaction, and an overall sense of accomplishment.

What Others Say

"We were very happy with the result of our building work on the trip. We really enjoyed interacting with the kids, getting a section of the site fully completed, and exploring what Kathmandu had to offer. Everyone in the team made a significant contribution on the project and arrived home with memorable experiences to ponder and share.

It was an amazing trip, the children and people were so positive and generous. How they live and get on with life was so inspiring. We don’t know how lucky and fortunate we really are."

- Chris Badcock - Team Leader, SmithCorp Charitable Trust, Nepal 2016

"As soon as I saw the application, I was dying to apply. The twelve of us came together from all over the world; we didn’t know each other before we arrived and we have formed a really unique bond over this project. A lot of us come from first world countries and have never seen this kind of poverty before so a lot of us had a wide variety of emotions when we first arrived. But Dean, our building manager, has been absolutely spectacular at making us all feel so comfortable."
