Gap Year Opportunities

An Outreach360 "Gap Year" trip is a great opportunity for High School graduates before starting college or for college graduates before starting a career. Outreach360 provides rich opportunities to gain valuable work experience, leadership skills, to learn a new language and to immerse yourself in a new culture. 

A Gap Year experience does not necessarily mean one needs to join us for a full year to have a tremendous experience and change the lives of many. Please contact us to determine the length of time that would be good for you. Most of our long-term volunteers, regardless of their length of stay, always wish they would have stayed longer.

We invite you to join us for any length of time! Register now!

  • Supervision and support throughout your stay.

"Serving long term in the D.R. is what you're looking for. For better or worse, the city of Monte Cristi becomes your home and your safe haven. I could no easier take my heart out of that place now than out of my own chest! Go. Serve. Love. Grow. Meet your home away from home."
