i-to-iVolunteer in Asia
Working as a volunteer in Asia is a great way to be a responsible traveller and make a positive difference to the country. If you volunteer in Asia you can gain a far greater insight into local culture and everyday life than simply passing through – which makes for a far more authentic gap year Asia or travel Asia experience. Plus, if you want to volunteer in Asia it's not necessary to have any specific skills or qualifications – just bring along your passion and an enthusiasm to 'give something back' and keep an open mind! In return you will gain an unforgettable and worthwhile travel experience that you'll treasure for years.
Volunteering in your year out in Asia with i-to-i provides you with a wide choice of worthwhile volunteer programs. You can get involved with one of our popular wildlife conservation projects, presenting thrilling opportunities to work with some of Asia's most endangered animals, such as orangutans in Borneo. You may also consider community volunteer work in Asia and make a contribution towards improving the lives of disadvantaged children and adults in local communities, or you could make a vital difference by contributing your time to volunteer in Vietnam or volunteer in India. Our recent Sri Lanka volunteer project enabled volunteers to help re-build homes destroyed by the 2004 tsunami.
Whichever volunteer Asia project you opt for, you can be sure to find the volunteering venture that's right for you. Take a look at our Asia country guides – from India, Thailand and China, you're spoilt for choice when picking the ideal volunteer or teaching project in Asia for you. It's sure to be a gap year you'll never forget!
