    Take Action, Be Involved!

    SOLS 24/7 is a dynamic international NGO with ongoing and new projects, aimed at promoting a holistic service to society. Our organization provides free education and boarding to underprivileged youth in Cambodia, Timor Leste, Malaysia, Laos and Thailand.

    We also work on various other projects such as refugee education, education of stateless children, training of university students in ICT (Timor Leste), and as a resource hub for other organizations, NGO's and Government bodies to reach a large audience.

    We believe everyone can make a difference and touch lives by contributing their time, skills, knowledge and ideas through volunteerism. Volunteering with SOLS 24/7 also goes a step further because we encourage our volunteers to learn, develop, grow and explore their potential through exciting projects and mentorship opportunities!
