"Voluntourism"

I saw this article today on MSNBC on the concept of "voluntourism." Voluntourism.org describes it as "A seamlessly integrated combination of voluntary service to a destination and the best, traditional elements of travel—arts, culture, geography, and history—in that destination." And apparently there's quite a few companies that specialize in organizing these trips. Next time you're planning a vacation, take a look at their site!
