It's time for another Weekend Roundup! This week, we've got lots of great stuff on Volunteer Global--check it out!

Our newest content:

• Steph brought you a beautiful article about volunteering with senior citizens
• We've also got a brand-new 60 Seconds to Serve video--this week's featured Travel Buddy is Gap Africa Projects!
• As well, Brittany told you all about what to do when you hate the food--an awkward situation that you can absolutely navigate while traveling abroad!
• Our friends with Camillian Social Center posted this great press release about their programs
• And finally, the Humanity Exchange (one of our awesome Travel Buddies) posted an amazing opportunity for you to become a camp counselor in Ghana this summer!

Plus we found some awesome stuff around the web, like:
