Volunteer in Thailand
When you volunteer in Thailand you’ll see that despite the sky-scrapers in Bangkok and the hotels that pepper the southern islands, Thailand remains a poor country, with many Thai people living below the poverty line. By volunteering in Thailand you will make a huge difference to the lives and futures of the people you meet on your journey.
Opportunities for Volunteering in Thailand
Travellers wanting to volunteer in Thailand can choose from community development, conservation or English teaching projects across Thailand. Many of the people you’ll work with when volunteering in Thailand are disadvantaged people, many of whom have no access to health and education. Some of our most popular Thailand volunteer projects include Teaching English in coastal Thailand, community work with hill tribe children in Northern Thailand and conservation on the tropical island of Koh Tao.To find out more about Volunteering in Thailand take a look at the projects and resources below.
