Volunteer in Vietnam
Affordable, Exciting, Life-Changing Vietnam Volunteer Experiences!

If ever a country deserved a helping hand it is Vietnam. Blighted by a turbulent and tragic past, this Southeast Asian gem is fast on the road to recovery and our Vietnam volunteers are doing their best. Our projects in Hanoi bring our volunteers into daily contact with some of Vietnam’s most disadvantaged children in our orphanage and the local school, our volunteers make a real and lasting difference.

Vietnam’s breathtaking scenery, rich culture, incredible food and welcoming people are no secret. Millions of tourists flock here each year. However, volunteering in Vietnam provides a completely different take on how life here really works. Volunteers eat, sleep and work amongst Vietnamese nationals, in local projects designed help the most under-privileged in society. And while some of our projects can be challenging, the positive impact our volunteers make is something that stays with them for the rest of their lives. Many return year after year.

Vietnam is fast emerging from a turbulent past and there is a very real sense that now is the time there is now a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity to build a better future its people. Participating in one of our Vietnam volunteer projects is the perfect way to play your part.

Available Projects

• HANI Kids Project - When it comes to volunteering in Vietnam, it doesn’t get much better than this. Our Temple Orphanage Project places volunteers in the beautiful Bo De pagoda where they are truly immersed in daily Vietnam life, interact with and help the children who need it most. The plight of these children is heartbreaking and simply by spending time and playing games with these kids our volunteers bring some light back into their lives.

• HAIT Teaching Project - Volunteers help to transform the lives of Hanoi’s poorest children by providing basic care and education. Amid grinding poverty, the families of Hanoi’s slums are unable to afford even a basic education for their children and many are forced to beg and collect garbage from a young age. The local school gives the children a safe environment to learn, eat and play. Volunteers work with children, teaching English and other skills to improve their well being and give them the promise of a brighter future.
