IVHQ Nepal Program - An Awesome Experience

December 16, 2025by: Marcio Pinto - United StatesProgram: Volunteer in Nepal from US$285 — 11 Projects Available

I truly credit IVHQ with one of the most meaningful and unforgettable experiences I’ve had abroad. From the very start of the application process, everything was seamless and filled me with excitement. I chose to volunteer with children with special needs in Kathmandu in the fall of 2025, and IVHQ made the entire journey incredibly smooth and stress-free. My program manager was outstanding—always responsive, supportive, and helpful whenever I had questions. I never felt rushed, had more than enough time to complete all requirements, and appreciated the clear guidance every step of the way. The IVHQ website is extremely well organized and easy to navigate, and the timely reminders about deadlines were incredibly helpful. Once in Nepal, the experience exceeded all my expectations. I absolutely loved my homestay family—the accommodations were comfortable, the family was warm and welcoming, and the homemade Nepali food was delicious. This experience had such a positive impact on me that I am already planning to return to Nepal next year to volunteer again. I am deeply grateful to the entire IVHQ team for their professionalism, care, and dedication. They truly made this experience special, rewarding, and unforgettable.

Everything was so seamless and well-organized.

My IVHQ program manager was so helpful and was always very available for me. I appreciated the constant help so much. The local team was amazing and everything was so seamless and well-organized. They were always available and answered my questions so quickly and in-depth. The hospital in Pokhara was amazing. I loved volunteering there so much and learned a ton for my nursing program. All the medical staff were so welcoming and engaging. I really appreciated how amazing this opportunity was and everything I gained from it. My host family was amazing. So welcoming and kind. They helped me with so many things, and they gave me advice for adjusting to Pokhara. They showed me around to places and told me about things to do. They offered to take me to a volunteer school and a clinic in addition to my volunteer placement and I really enjoyed seeing these places. All-around so wonderful. I cannot say enough good things about the Nepal IVHQ Medical Elective program. So many amazing learning opportunities with the hospital and beautiful places to visit. I gained so much experience volunteering in the ER for my future career as an ER Nurse. Every single person I encountered was so wonderfully welcoming, and I formed relationships that will last. My trek was an incredible journey, and I felt very supported by the people I did it with. From start to finish, this trip was perfectly organized and packed with memories I will cherish forever. I recommend this program to everyone.
