Has anyone used samconnects to volunteer?

Question

is it legitimate?

Answer 1

I've never heard of it. It's suspicious to me that googling the name generates only the organization's web site and your posts here on Yahoo -- meaning that no one is talking about them nor referring to them online.

There is a listing of the more-than-30 member organizations of the International Volunteers Program Association (IVPA) that is a good place to find reputable volunteer-for-a-fee programs -- programs where you don't need to have much experience in order to participate, and the placements are just for a few weeks or months:
