Description

Get aboard and experience an unforgettable time in Asia.

This is your chance to have an amazing time in Sri Lanka and make a real difference. Make sure you are part of this life changing experience.

Become involved in a variety of activities to help orphaned children flourish. Help them with their homework, play games, sing songs, indulge in arts & drama and social education, you name it. All projects involve an element of English teaching - methods and duration differ from project to project, from person to person.

If you love to work with children and young people in a different culture this is for you. Be enthusiastic, patient, imaginative, resourceful, have initiative and be motivated and you will star. Working with children and young people is challenging and ever so rewarding.

Volunteer projects are for a minimum of 2 weeks and max 12 weeks (contact us if you like to go longer).
