Global Volunteer Network (GVN) is an international volunteer recruitment organisation based in New Zealand.

GVN is our primary source of volunteers. They have bought over 100 volunteers, from around the world, to our doorstep since the relationship began in late 2004. Without their assistance our volunteer programme would be unviable.

Global Volunteer Network was started by Colin Salibury in 2000. Having spent a considerable time volunteering in Ghana West Africa, Colin returned to New Zealand to research the international volunteer recruitment market. Having been disappointed with what he found, he decided to create his own company which offered volunteers terrific value for money and tremendous scope of volunteer opportunities.

GVN offers volunteer opportunities in Alaska, China, Costa Rica, Ecuador, El Salvador, Ghana, Honduras, India, Kenya, Nepal, New Zealand, Philippines, Romania, Russia, South Africa (that's us!), Tanzania, Thailand, Uganda, and Vietnam.
