Newsflash: Our voluntourism trip to Rio de Janeiro was recently named one of Travel + Leisure's 2009 Transformation Vacations! This meaningful volunteer vacation combines the magic of Rio, the warm and fun loving people and your chance to help the locals rejuvenate and feel proud of their community.

Also: There are still spaces available for our luxury voluntourism, solo travelers-only trip to Rio, Brazil, starting on March 1!

This 11 day trip has you staying in Rio's finest boutique luxury hotel, taking in the highlights of this spectacular city, and enables you to spend 5 of your days helping enrich and beautify one of the favelas (slums) through painting colorful murals.
