Hi, I (18, f) graduated from high school this year and am now very unsure what to do afterward. I'm already sure what subject I want to study and I'm looking forward to learning, student life, etc., but a free year with volunteer work, internships, and earning money also appeals to me. My studies would…
Hello, I'm 17 years old and would like to help children or animals abroad, but I don't know how to plan everything. How do I find animal welfare organizations or children's homes abroad? Is there anything I need to keep in mind? And is that even possible at 17? I already have experience as a…
Hi, I'm finishing school soon and am looking for a voluntary social or environmental project/volunteering opportunity abroad (e.g., in Africa, Asia, or South America). So far, I've only found projects that cost a lot of money, but I'm looking for low-cost campaigns (preferably free of charge; I don't know if such a thing exists) where…
Does anyone know of any good platforms for this? Whether in German or English. Most platforms no longer offer English.
Hi, after graduating from high school next year, I'd like to spend some time abroad doing volunteer work. The USA is a very interesting destination for me; I'd like to "work" as a volunteer in a national park with the National Park Service (NPS). However, I'm unsure about the visa. After some research, I think…

Hello, I would like to do volunteer work with horses during my summer holidays. Preferably somewhere in Europe, outside of Germany. However, I've seen that many opportunities require people to be 18 years or older. I don't want to go on vacation, but rather genuinely help. In return, I expect to receive free food and…
Hey, I'm currently looking for a stay abroad for 2023. I'm interested in the adventure tours offered by TravelWorks, for example, to Costa Rica, and I wanted to ask if anyone can tell me what it was like or recommend another organization. I'm 19 years old, and I'd love to meet people a similar age…
Hello, I (17) have been thinking for some time about doing volunteer work for a foreign organization with mammals after I finish school (I have not yet decided on a country or a specific animal species). Currently available are Hawaii, Costa Rica, Bali, Thailand, South Africa, Zimbabwe and Namibia. The problem is that most projects…
Good day everyone, I'm 16 years old and currently attending a vocational college, but I don't like it at all. The class is terrible, as are some of the teachers… I actually wanted to start an apprenticeship, but everything in my field is filled (they offered me an apprenticeship for next year)… I've been considering…
Hello, I'd like to go abroad for two weeks next year to do volunteer work. But the more you look into the topic, the more you realize that many programs don't actually need the volunteers and exploit them for financial reasons. But I really want to help where help is needed. Are there any specific…
