Volunteering Abroad in the Philippines with Projects Abroad

With its 7000 islands and history of Spanish rule, the Philippines offer a unique Asian experience set apart geographically and culturally from mainland Asia. Projects are available for anyone interested in volunteering in the developing world, whether you are student on a gap year or summer vacation, a professional on career break, or a retired volunteer. Projects Abroad in the Philippines is based on Cebu Island, part of the Visayan Islands region. While living with local host families in Cebu City and surrounding smaller towns, volunteers can work in orphanages or care centers helping disadvantaged children, teach English in both primary and secondary schools, do medical internships in the local hospitals, intern in journalism, coach sports, and learn the local Cebuano language.

Unforgettable

July 22, 2024by: Olivia Program: Volunteering Abroad in the Philippines with Projects Abroad

The medical mission trip in the Philippines is truly a one of a kind experience. I have had so many opportunities to increase my patient care experience, and see a variety of different health related things. From being in the Delivery Room, to taking vitals, each experience was so special and unique. It also wouldn’t be this amazing without the projects abroad staff. They are all so helpful and amazing!!!

I taught how to say Japanese, wear kimono, make something by using origami to elementary school students. Also, I taught how to wash your hands and brush your teeth to kindergarten students. Moreover, all of students taught me how to say something in Philippines language and traditional cultures. When I gave them many Japanese traditional presents, all of them were happy, and I was also given some presents by them. The most memorable experience for me was when I gave Japanese antiperspirant products to kindergarten students, not only did they start taking care of themselves, but they also took care of me.
