Program Impact
The support of our volunteers is essential to the refuge. The refuge offers a sanctuary for elephants to retire, and be given the respect that these amazing creatures deserve. When volunteering with the elephants, you will help them by providing essential care such as feeding and creating of enrichments, cleaning and maintaining their enclosures, and collecting of food. You will also be taught everything you need to know about the plight of the Asian Elephant.
At the Wildlife Rescue Centre volunteers usually work long days, around 8 hours; without the invaluable contribution from volunteers the center would simply not be able to function. We take our rescue and rehabilitation work very seriously. Please be aware the centre is strictly hands off. Volunteers will have no physical interaction with animals but will provide the essential daily and long-term needs of the animals, such as feeding, cleaning enclosures and providing enrichments.
At the English Teaching base, you will have a direct impact on local language efforts. You will spend part of your day assisting at local rural schools offering a supporting role and then the remaining part of your day will be helping run English language classes on site at the centre.
