VFP is a Vermont non-profit (501 (c) (3) membership corporation
which has been coordinating International Workcamps since 1982.
VFP is a member of the Coordinating Committee for International
Voluntary Service (CCIVS) at UNESCO and works in cooperation with
Service Civil International (SCI), the Alliance of European Voluntary
Service Organizations, and the International Youth Action for Peace
(YAP). Our office staff, board and thousands of volunteers in the
field help facilitate this program. In 2000, we exchanged over 1200
volunteers.
VFP promotes International Voluntary Service as an effective means
of intercultural education and community service. We provide programs
where people from diverse backgrounds can work together to help
overcome the need, violence and environmental decay facing our planet.
Workcamps are truly the microcosm of a world where nations join
together giving priority to improving life for humanity. They are
a practical way to both prevent and resolve conflict. By participating
in a workcamp, you'll help sow the seeds of peace. We hope that
you will join us in this effort!
