Program Reviews

The trip had the perfect combination of action, volunteering, and relaxation. The local team genuinely cared about helping the community and getting involved with charity work. We worked at a few schools, and the atmosphere was entirely professional, whilst easing us into working with the kids at our own pace. The children were wonderful to work with and really wanted to learn as much as they could. One of the highlights of the trip had to be snorkeling in Koh Tao. We saw amazing coral and even some sharks.

I spent whole month in Palampur which is state of Himaschal pradesh for my medical intership. This breathtaking part of India with amazing view of Himalayen mountains is beautiful. I gain a lot of experience and knowledge of medicine in India as well as cultural customs, cuisine, yoga etc. The place where volunteers stay is beautiful and very nice house with every facility that you need. Food which is prepared for you by cook is very delicious typical indian cousine. All of the people who takes care of you are very nice and whenever you ask them they are prepared to give you some help or advice. I think they do a really good work. After all it was pleasure to be there and i enjoyed so much, thank you guys and just keep doing this.

I’ve just spent two weeks in Palampur because of the Dental Volounteering Program. What made it a wonderfull experience was the avalaibility of the coordinator, Bobby! The dental Camps were very useful not only for the hands on experience we made, but also as a human experience. Every day we changed village, so it was possible to help lot of people. The voulounteer house was a perfect and peaceful place, the food was very good and all the staff was very kind! Of course I will do it again. Nothing more to add, just do it and enjoy!!!

I’ve been in Palampur (India) for the dental program with VolSol. It was great!
We had the opportunity to work a lot in dental camps in different villages every morning, learning new things and helping people.
A special thanks to Bobby (coordinator and dentist), who taught us a lot during the camps, and also helped us enjoy every moment of these 2 weeks.
The volunteering house is very comfortable and the stuff is very available.
Furthermore Palampur is a very quiet place, in big contrast with the chaos of Delhi, with few shops but full of helpful people.
I really recommend the dental program to everyone looking for a volunteering experience in this field, both as students and post graduates.

I had a really great time volunteering in India with VolSol: I took part to the dental program in Palampur for 2 weeks, and it was simply amazing, beyond my expectations actually. I really learned a lot and improved my skills while taking part to the program, which was totally hands-on, giving me the opportunity to work in this totally different scenario from the one I was used to in my home country while giving an actual help to the people attending the dental camps.
A special thanks goes to Bobby, program coordinator and dentist, who taught us so much and was really available beyond expectations, always ready to help all of us and prone to make us enjoy every moment of our experience. Also the rest of the staff was always great with us.
The volunteer house in Palampur is very comfortable and there you can find everything you may need during your stay.
Palampur is a very peaceful place, surrounded by green. It gives you the idea of a very safe place, full of small grocery stores and cloth shops.
Overall I am really happy about the location, and even more about the program.
I surely reccomend VolSol and in particular the dental program in Palampur!

Had an amazing time working at the orphanage and meetin all the children. Ali and laila, were amazing in looking after us and always ensured we were safe and used our time in the best way. The programme helped me learn about different cultures and authentic morroco. Living in the accommodation has allowed me to make firends from all over the world and develop and connection. This experience has truly been a very heart touching experience and has opened my eyes to the many different ways of life and people

It was an amazing experience working in the orphanage with special need children as well as interacting with the older youths. Leila and Ali were very helpful on suggesting things to do during our free time. On the weekend, I was able to visit places such as chefchaouen and Casablanca which topped it all off! I will definately reccomend my family and friends to volunteer with Volunteering Solution.

Memorable experience which i will never forget. Favourite part was being able to interact with the children carry out all the activities and games with them. Being able to use our past experiences and care for the special needs kids feeding them and playing with them also.
Being able to talk and work with the staff and being able to communicate the basics and learn the basic arabic moroccan language
As well as being able to take part in the throne party at the end

Unforgettable experience that was not akways easy, but was worth it. Was met at airport by Kelly, with Volsol, who got us to our host home via taxi. My friend and I could already tell we did not know enough Spanish. Our host home was nice and comfortable and we loved our host “mom” Elizabeth and her daughter, Karla. Jenny led the orientation, as she is the coordinator for all the programs in Cusco. We started work at the medical clinic the next day. I was able to work in triage and with a general practitioner, and spent one day in Pediatrics. Weekends were spent exploring the beautiful country of Peru. It was cold, and there’s no heat anywhere, which was hard for me and my friend. We struggled to communicate with taxi drivers and started using Taxidatum, which helped. The tour company ExploorPeru was excellent and had a little problem with InkaTime, but Jenny assisted us. Overall a great experience!
