Some people manage to find their own volunteer placements independently, but this can take ages to get organised and if you’ve read the media stories, it’s not always safe.  As a result, not all travellers have that great lifetime experience they’d hope for….


We know it seems like a strange concept at first to have to pay to volunteer, so here’s some reasons why a placement fee offers you good value for money:

  • Access to off-the-beaten track projects and communities
  • You spend a lot less time organising your trip
  • Your accommodation (and often food) is included
  • Guaranteed project that helps local people
  • In-country co-ordinator for support
  • More satisfying ‘grass-roots’ cultural experience
  • Crisis management service if things go wrong
  • An economical way to travel – try finding a package tour that offers you as much!
