IVHQ made my volunteering dreams a reality!
October 23, 2025by: Sarah Goffin - United KingdomProgram: Volunteer and Teach English in Nepal
Scotia and Emma kept me well informed prior to going to my placement and the orienteering day was very well run. I am so grateful that they were able to organise this for me and my experience with these incredible ladies (and 1 man) will stick with me forever (and has certainly sparked a desire to do more volunteering overseas in future).
Fantastic experience volunteering
October 03, 2025by: Lisa Nicholls - United KingdomProgram: Volunteer and Teach English in Nepal
Prior to flying to Nepal, the event team provides all the necessary information to ensure the experience goes smoothly. I wouldn’t hesitate to recommend IVHQ if you are considering volunteering abroad. This was my first time as a solo traveller and I was there for 3 weeks. I was an amazing experience staying with a local family. Very accommodating and although facilities are very basic it was comfortable and homely. Wonderful home cooked food and a lovely welcome to eat with the family.

great experience
March 16, 2025by: Anita Vencelj - SloveniaProgram: Volunteer and Teach English in Nepal
Volunteering in Nepal was transformative. I taught English to older women which was a very rewarding experience. Accomodation at local host families gave us a chance to better immerse in their rich culture. Coordinators ensured safety and support throughout my stay there.
