How to use this page
Open the opportunity that interests you and read the complete announcement. Look for the contact details at the end of the listing to find the host’s website, email address or application procedure.
Before accepting an opportunity, confirm the activities, weekly hours, days off, accommodation, meals, transport arrangements, minimum stay and any fees or contributions directly with the host.
Voluntouring does not organise placements, select volunteers, arrange visas or mediate between volunteers and hosts. Older announcements may remain online for archival and informational purposes.
Entry, volunteering and work exchanges
Hawaii is part of the United States and follows U.S. immigration and employment rules. Visitor status or ESTA should not be assumed to permit every unpaid activity or work exchange.
U.S. rules recognise certain voluntary service programmes organised by qualifying religious or non-profit charitable organisations. Informal exchanges involving regular work for surf camps, farms, hostels or other commercial businesses should not automatically be treated in the same way.
Before travelling, check the official U.S. visa information and confirm which activities are permitted under your specific immigration status.
Planning an exchange in Hawaii
Distances, public transport and living costs can vary considerably between islands. Confirm the exact island and location of the project, how you will reach it and whether local transport is available before booking your trip.
Respect private property, local communities, cultural sites and environmental restrictions. If the project involves surfing, hiking, farming, animal care or other outdoor activities, also make sure your insurance covers what you will actually be doing.

Important: project availability, immigration conditions and exchange arrangements can change. Confirm current information directly with the host and relevant official authorities before making travel or financial commitments.
