Welcome to our page on volunteering opportunities in Italy! Here, you can find volunteer projects and programs, as well as hospitality exchanges, to explore and experience the beautiful country of Italy.

Volunteering in Italy

With its long Mediterranean coastline, vast cultural heritage, and world-renowned cuisine, Italy is many travellers’ favourite destination. Il Bel Paese has so much to offer from the ancient ruins of Rome to the Renaissance masterpieces of Florence, from the canals of Venice, to the fashion capital of Milan.

Beyond the tourist attractions, there are opportunities to volunteer with local hosts, communities, and organizations, who will offer you free hospitality in exchange for your help. Some may even provide pocket money. Please read the project descriptions carefully before applying.

Volunteering typically involves part-time help, around 4-5 hours per day, 5 days per week. For more information, please see our FAQ page.
