3-6 Months Volunteer Programs in Sri Lanka

Volunteering with IVHQ was one of the best decisions I’ve ever made. From the moment I signed up, I felt supported and well-informed. As a first-time traveler I was nervous, but IVHQ made the entire process smooth and stress-free. Their guidance before departure, detailed information, and constant communication helped me feel confident and excited about my journey. Once I arrived at my destination, the local team was incredibly welcoming and helpful. They made sure I felt safe, comfortable, and prepared. They were always available to answer questions and offer support, which made a huge difference in adjusting to a new environment. The volunteer work itself was fulfilling and meaningful. I felt like I was contributing to something bigger than myself, and the connections I made with both the local community and fellow volunteers were unforgettable. I would absolutely recommend IVHQ to anyone looking to volunteer abroad, especially if it’s your first time traveling. They combine safety, structure, and genuine impact in a way that makes the experience both personal and powerful. It’s an opportunity to grow, give back, and explore the world in a truly unique way. I’m so grateful I chose to volunteer with IVHQ.

This week I've been able to experience activities that I would have never thought of every having the fortune to participate in. From collecting and planting seeds in the muddy mangroves to playing and teaching the local elementary school children, the IVHQ program has offered me once in a lifetime experiences. The people I've met on this trip have also been amazing in their own unique ways. I've learnt so much not just about the Philippines where the program was held, but also about the other countries where the other volunteers came from. The program has really opened my eyes and shown me how much there is to explore within the world and I'd highly recommend it to anyone else hesitant to join.
