    That would be frightening to go overseas with a group like that.

    There are a lot of them out there. If it was me I would try one of the church groups. Different churches are always going in trips to build schools or churches or even putting in wells.

    Red Cross is a good place to start. They're affiliated with other groups as well they can refer you to for volunteer work. My wife does it from time to time.
