Help the local communities at Volunt2Thai Association
Join the Volunt2Thai project in North-East Thailand and help improve local schools. This project, running for ten years now, focuses on helping kids in need. As a volunteer, you’ll teach, learn, and grow.
You’ll get to try a lot of things – from sports and yoga, language teaching, and farming, to bread baking and cooking. There’s also tech stuff like computer lessons and filmmaking.
Whether you’re alone or with a partner, you can make great memories while sharing your skills with the next generation. Plus, you’ll get to experience the local culture first-hand. To find out more, check out our website.

Social Development Project – what is it about?
V2T was started in 2014 with the aims of
- helping farmers and their families
- encouraging the development of the region with particular emphasis on guiding the children of the villages to a better future.
V2T has since grown and with the constant expansion of its network, it has become a Campus & Cultural Center and platform for all kinds of projects.
Your job at V2T is to broaden the boundaries of the children and improve their understanding of the world with your influence and presence so that when they have grown up they will be able to act in a wider intercultural dimension.
With a better understanding of the world they occupy, they will be better equipped to determine their own destiny. In simplest terms:
“All project participants will have left behind knowledge and good memories”.
Adding a V2T reference to your CV is guaranteed to get you noticed!
V2T (Volunt2Thai) has collaborative partnerships with NGOโs and educational institutions (colleges & universities) and works with a wide range of partners in all of its fields of competence for the development of different projects taking place at our project sites.
In contrast to the project V2T which concentrates its efforts on the development of the community with a particular focus on the children, the association’s aim is to promote and support:
- volunteer engagement of youths and adults and in so doing,
- contribute to the development of international cooperation and understanding.

Fees transparency ๐
V2T is an independent campus and cultural centre. It is authorized by the government to help and support children and young people through education. It is a non-profit making organization and it’s operating without government grants, so volunteers are required to fund their own stay.
The current cost of a volunteer stay is Euro 114/week, full-board (+ 100 booking fee).
These funds are necessary to keep the development of the organization and projects ongoing as well as for legal processes.
Note from the project manager: 460 euros a month is very cheap considering the tools and environment we offer. It’s about half of the living cost one has to pay when someone stays on their own in Thailand for the same standard.
If you are interested in joining Volunt2thai, use the following application formโ to get in touch with the project managers of the campus.
