Orphanage Volunteer
Thailand Internship Placement
Options
- Full-time volunteer
- Internship
- Part-time volunteer
- Volunteer Only
Most large orphanages in Thailand provide both lodging and schooling for children and in some cases their families. Besides teaching English, the volunteers are able to work with the children on their vegetable garden and to create activities for the students or arrange workshops for cultural exchange, environmental and other important issues. We will also do construction, renovation work in making the place better to the best of our abilities. Depending on the particular skill of the participants or group ideas we may do some art or handicraft as well. This experience can be extremely heartwarming!
This program consists of working with an orphanage 20 km away from Singburi City. Volunteers have their own center, where they will work with program coordinators to prepare activities and materials for the children. Activities may include arranging sports games, after school programs, giving workshops, gardening in the vegetable garden and some special environmental awareness campaigns like Clean Up The Orphanage with the children.
