CIVS Community Service

Organization Description: 

CIVS works through volunteers. Rather than sending instant relief in the form of food or money, CIVS sends people to share their skills and experience with local communities. These volunteers are chosen from a wide range of professionals who want the chance to make a real difference in the fight against poverty; fostering development by the people; as well as developing harmonious relations among people of different backgrounds and cultures.
