Thank you
Not only have you helped us raise over £1.2million for the projects we work with in Africa and South America, you have also provided us with buckets of energy, tons of enthusiasm and you've made the projects happen. Without you we could never have saved thousands of acres of Rainforest, built homes in Peru, built schools in Malawi and Tanzania, provided clean drinking water to 1,000's in Kenya, cared for rescued animals in Bolivia and provided 1,000 of hours of care for children across Africa and South America (and that's just a small amount of what you've helped us achieve)
Find out what past volunteers up to now
Quest volunteers have a habit of getting up to rather interesting things, let us know what you're up to and click here to find out what everyone else is getting up to.
Stay involved
There are numerous ways that you can stay involved. If you're heading to University why not become a Uni rep? It's a fun way to spread the word about what an amazing experience being a volunteer is.
Why not get involved in fundraising for Quest4Change - 100% of the money we raise goes to the projects we work with in Africa and South America, you can do anything from running a Marathon, to baking cakes, hosting a pub quiz or dressing as a chicken.
Be a secret millionaire, don't worry, you don't have to be an actual millionaire to get involved. We have a number of good gifts and sponsorship pledges you can make.
Good Gifts: For just £10 you can buy chicken feed to help support our school farm in Tanzania. For £20 you can buy a desk for a school in Malawi. For £50 you can save an acre of rainforest. For £100 you can pay a teacher's salary in Malawi, for £500 you can help build a sand dam which will provide clean drinking water for 1,200 people.
Sponsorship pledges: Why not take 10 kids swimming in Peru for just £3 a month? Or sponsor one of the cats at Ambue Ari in Bolivia for £10 a month.
