IVI is a non profit charity that has delivered positive social change to developing communities for over 30 years.  

We have recently teamed up with Travelee, an inspiring organisation created by Elena Rowland and Lee Carseldine from Australia Survivor. Together they are helping to connect people with adventurous travel with purpose.   El will be volunteering at a woman and children’s commune in Fiji this Christmas sharing her story and helping to empower families with new opportunities.
