Join us on a meaningful journey to Madagascar, Africa – from July 25 to August 5, 2026 – and be part of a mission that transforms lives, including your own.
Together with other volunteers, you will travel to one of the projects supported by Fraternity Without Borders. You will experience what Fraternity means to us and get to learn more about the project you will visit.
Guided by the values of the FWB, with the vision of “shaking the world” and instill people with the confidence that it is possible to make a better world through good actions, the “FWB Caravan” were born, which will allow people to live a fraternal experience that will be cherished forever!
To live out the values of the FWB mission and contribute to transforming lives, the organization’s humanitarian efforts take a sensitive, respectful, technical, and thoughtful approach in the places where the projects are located. Therefore, all activities are guided by ethics, moral values, and transparent guidelines.
The caravans are voluntary and aim to offer the participants a fraternal experience and encourage everyone to be an agent of change. In addition, it seeks to introduce the participants to local realities, whether with their deficiencies and vulnerabilities as well as with the cultural and human richness, such as the strength of the African people – who teach us about humility and purity -, and of our Brazilian brothers and sisters. Therefore, we will serve our brothers and sisters through the donation of affection, discipline, respect, cooperation, and compassion.
The caravans are complementary to the projects carried out by the FWB. Thus, they are organized with the participation of sponsors interested in volunteer work, according to their area of personal or technological knowledge, or professional skills. It is important to point out that, to participate in the caravans, it is necessary to be a sponsor of one of the organization’s projects.
By signing up, get ready for an experience that will change your life. “I am because we are”, the Ubuntu philosophy that guides our caravans. Your service, coming straight from the heart, will be welcomed by all people assisted by our projects, who have been living in precarious conditions, with little food and resources but always keeping the hope that better days will germinate for them.
Every Fraternity Without Borders caravan is more than a journey. It is an opportunity to experience the depth of human connection, compassion, and fraternity in action. Our mission is not only to serve, but to walk side by side with the people of south Madagascar, sharing presence, stories, and moments that transform us from within.
This will be an international general caravan, open to people from different countries and backgrounds. It will focus on several core areas of our project in Madagascar, allowing each volunteer to participate in the way that best aligns with their heart, skills, and willingness to help.
Volunteers will be invited to connect with the people, listen, support, and help develop activities that bring comfort and practical assistance.
Throughout the caravan, we will experience powerful moments of empathy, compassion, generosity, presence, and solidarity. These are the moments that leave lasting impressions, that shift perspectives, and that remind us of what truly matters.
This is not just a trip. It is an invitation to be part of something meaningful. To give. To receive. To allow yourself to be changed by the beauty of human connection.
Come with us. The experience is intense, emotional, and unforgettable. And you are welcome just as you are.
The humanitarian work will be from July 24th to August 5th. The volunteers must arrive in Malawi on April 26th and depart on May 6th, 2026.
Travel and Participation Costs
Volunteers are responsible for booking and covering the cost of their own international round-trip flights. These arrangements should be made after participation in the caravan is officially confirmed. We recommend purchasing your tickets as early as possible to find better prices.
In addition to airfare, there is a fixed fee of US$1,300 that covers all on-the-ground expenses, including local transportation (transfers), hotel accommodation and on site accommodation, domestic flights within Madagascar, meals and beverages, translators, maintenance staff, and logistical support.
Please note that certain costs are not included in this fee. These may include visa fees, required vaccinations, and international health insurance. These additional expenses will vary depending on your country of origin. Guidance and support regarding these requirements will be provided by the caravan coordinator.
To ensure we begin and end this experience together, it is essential that:
✈️ Everyone arrives in Antananarivo on July 24th
✈️ Everyone departs from Antananarivo on August 5th (no earlier, no later)
These dates are fixed so we can travel as one group and live this experience in full unity.
We know that this journey is much more than a trip. It’s a commitment of heart. It’s walking side by side with those who need us most. It’s building bridges of love where once there was only silence.
If you’re coming with us: thank you! If you’re still deciding: we’re here to answer any questions and walk with you through the process.
This is more than logistics… It’s the beginning of something unforgettable!
All volunteers are important for the FWB activities carried out in the projects. This entails and demands an important responsibility from each volunteer, as it involves participating in the lives of people who are very vulnerable and who at some point were invisible. Therefore, for the volunteer’s purposes to be aligned with those of the FWB, it is essential that:
If your heart is calling you to be part of this journey, we would love to hear from you.
