I am looking to travel abroad this summer and I wanted to know did anyone know any websites where I could get info on organizations that travel abroad to different countries during the summer or spring break?? I really would like to go to the Dominican Republic, Costa Rica, Africa, Thailand, Korea or Austraila... but I am not picky!

Just about any international volunteer opportunity you are going to find is not going to pay for your travel expenses. You will not only have to pay for those but some of your living expenses depending on the organization you go with.

Check out these two sites. They are both basically the same, but offer different opportunities in many different countries, some of which you may be able to get paid or, get housing. It's definitely a good resource.
www.volunteerabroad.com
www.internabroad.com
If you are interested in the Dominican Republic check out:
www.dominicandream.org They do lots of stuff within Dominican communities for children, and adults as well.

Check out www.alajuelacampground.com in Costa Rica,
they offer free volunteering and some times a free stay.

Church groups often have volunteer abroad trips for volunteer work.
Or you can search on the words "volunteer vacation" to find more option.
