Best Volunteer Projects in Chiang Mai
Program Overview
Volunteer in Chiang Mai and discover one of the most interesting places Thailand has to offer from a different point of view. Despite it being a very modern city that welcomes many tourists, Chiang Mai is still very calm and relaxed and the perfect place to volunteer your time for a good cause.
If you love animals, you have to join one of the many elephant sanctuaries in and around Chiang Mai. Elephants are still very common tourist attractions and often mishandled for riding. You can change this by educating tourists and caring for elephants that have been saved.
