About Program
Volunteer in Kathmandu, Nepal's vibrant capital city. Nestled in the Himalayan foothills, Kathmandu offers ancient temples, bustling markets, rich culture traditions and easy access to Nepal's most beautiful landscape.
Orphanage Care Volunteers typically work from 7:00 AM to 9:30 AM or 4:30 PM to 7:00 PM, five days per week. This split schedule leaves plenty of free time during the day to discover Kathmandu’s cultural landmarks, local cafés, and nearby attractions.
Teaching English Volunteers usually work from 10:00 AM to 4:00 PM, also with Saturdays and Sundays free. You’ll help local students improve their English skills while becoming part of the community and experiencing daily life in Kathmandu.
By choosing this program, you’ll have opportunities to immerse yourself in Nepalese culture, connect with local people, and explore the historic Kathmandu Valley during your free time.
Consider your impact: Volunteering abroad can be a rewarding experience for both volunteers and local communities, and at Go Overseas, we believe all volunteers should have the resources to make informed decisions about the type of volunteer project they want to partake in. However, despite best intentions, some organizations offering placements in orphanages may unknowingly place children in danger. You can read about the potential dangers of orphanage volunteering here.
