About Program

Join over 25,000 volunteers and make a real difference! Nepal is one of the most stunningly beautiful and culturally rich countries in the world. It is home to Mount Everest, the birthplace of Buddha, and beautiful landscapes. It's is also one of the most under-developed countries in the world and truly needs the help of global volunteers.

As a non-profit organisation, we provide affordable, trusted and safe volunteer projects, which include orientation, accommodation, meals, 24/7 in-country support, and airport pickup.

Programs in Nepal are based in the capital Kathmandu, the beautiful lakeside Pokhara, and we even have 'trek and volunteer' combined programs taking you to Everest base camp and Annapurna. Get ready for the experience of a lifetime and experience a true Nepalese culture!

Join us today and make a real difference to those less fortunate.

Stray Dog Rehabilitation Nepal

Everest Base Camp & Volunteering

Combine one of the most stunning treks in the world, with a volunteering program in Kathmandu. Start with an orientation week, learning about the culture and taking part in fun activities, then 2 weeks trekking to base camp through snow-capped mountains, before heading back to spend a week volunteering in Kathmandu (this can be extended if you like). A great way to travel and give back.

Community Construction Nepal

Help to rebuild schools, community buildings and health centres in Kathmandu and brighten up buildings which have not got the funding to maintain them. Work alongside fellow volunteers as part of a team, and see directly how your efforts are helping the local community! This would suit someone who likes to work outdoors, enjoys manual labour and doesn't mind getting their hands dirty.

The hospital was great I learnt so much from Dr Shanta he was an amazing mentor.

Earthquake rebuilding was definitely my favourite week, it was so authentic and I felt that I was making a real difference there. The host mother was beautiful and fed us very well. It was nice to get involved with the locals more than I did in Kathmandu as well.

Doing the extra activities including the HealthOutReach program was really good as well because I could see there had been a lack of education around basic hygiene, nutrition and first aid so I think it was really beneficial to the schools that we went to to teach them this. And I hope that they will talk with others in the community about what they learnt so that it can spread and do greater good.

The hosts were fantastic, all the staff were friendly, efficient and ready to do absolutely anything to help us. The food was great and so was the accommodation, it was located in a good spot and I felt safe at all times.

Honestly I think IVI have been amazing, both in Nepal and before we left. I have no complaints and will definitely be recommending IVI (and possibly coming back again!)
Thank-you
Jessie
