Volunteer in Vietnam | Most Affordable Projects Starting From $500

Vietnam was probably my shortest stint in volunteering with Vol Sol- 1 week. It was however a great one week away from home. The accommodation was located in District 7, away from the hustle and bustle. Over there I met so many great locals and enjoyed just chilling at the local bar, karaokeing with them- language was not an issue at all somehow!

The one day of orientation taught me a lot about the Vietnamese culture, and allowed me to meet likeminded individuals. We volunteered at a day care located within the vicinity of the hospital. The only set back however was the number of volunteers to the number of kids.

I loved my time in Vietnam. It was an incredible experience to be able to put my worries aside and focus on just those I was there to serve. It helped me grow a lot and taught me hard work. It also was so fun! I always felt safe with VS which is why I have continued to go back with them for all of my volunteering trips!

It took only a simple Google search to find the program of my choice in Vietnam. Volunteering Solutions program was a right fit. The website seemed extremely professional and the staffs were helpful in answering my queries. My time in Hanoi was great and I was picked up from the airport and dropped off at the accommodation. The accommodation is a huge volunteer house, not far from the old quarters, about 30 minutes.

Working with disabled children was far more rewarding than I thought. They were happy with my presence and that made me feel I was wanted. Overall a great experience!

The staff is very efficient and replied to my queries within 24 hours which was great! My placement with kids was amazing, the kids were very fun and willing to learn. The educator also makes my stay very enjoyable and had good plans for lessons. Overall thoroughly enjoyed seeing the non-tourist side of Vietnam.
