Volunteer Programs in Singapore

Commonly considered to be the most influential city in all of Asia because of its high ratings in human development and powerful ties in international trade, not many people realize that Singapore has managed to develop so rapidly after only gaining independence in 1963. Yet while it is a model for many places to learn from, this formidable island city-state also has it’s fair share of internal challenges to be met. Come volunteer abroad in Singapore to experience it all firsthand.

My most memorable experience was looking forward to feeding the beautiful elephants each day and seeing their excitement when we would arrive. In even those little interactions, you got to know a little more about the elephant’s personality each time.

A Guide to Volunteering Abroad in Singapore

Projects & Placements

Because it boasts one of the highest per capita incomes in the world, Singapore breaks the mold of many other countries where you might volunteer abroad in the region of Southeast Asia. However even though there is a ton of wealth in Singapore, like all societies there are a number of issues which still require the hard work of a devoted volunteer force to address. For example projects in areas such as medicine, education, and disability issues are all popular areas where you can volunteer abroad in Singapore, bringing valuable resources to underserved sectors of the population.

You can also volunteer abroad in Singapore within the field of environmental sustainability. Singapore is one of the best global models for environmental responsibility, setting aside nearly 10% of its land for public parks and nature reserves, and also devoting a significant portion of its resources to urban greening efforts. Volunteering in areas such as organic farming, tree planting, and wildlife surveying can help train you within one of the world’s most environmentally friendly urban landscapes.

Volunteer projects in Singapore can last anywhere from just a couple of weeks up to a full year, depending on how long you are available. English is spoken fluently throughout the city, so you also do not have to worry about a language gap while you volunteer abroad in Singapore!
