Peace Corp..but NOT.


Question Posted Monday September 17 2007, 10:31 pm

Ok, after I graduate highschool, I really want to join a group that travels around the world and helps out other countries. I was thinking about joining the Peace Corp, but I have one MAJOR issue- it's government run, and I don't trust our government. Are there any similar groups that are available? Thanks for any information you can give me. =]

You're going to have trouble finding organizations like this in the country that aren't government-run.

I've seen some run by colleges or private corporations but they are only for a short period of time and cost a lot of money.

I was considering that as well, and I share your concern.

The UN and The International Committee of the Red Cross do similar things:

I'm not aware of any others; if you find any I'd be interested to know about them.
