Do you need to have experience?

If you are determined to make a difference by lending a hand to people in developing countries, you are already halfway there. Some of our projects require certain qualifications and experience, but we also have many projects that require only a helping hand. Students, who are currently studying, and those that have recently completed their studies can take advantage of our wide range of internships in developing countries where you can share your knowledge and experience. As a volunteer, you will not only lend a helping hand but enjoy a fantastic, once-in-a-lifetime experience, that will enable you to establish friendships and relationships with people from all over the world. Not to mention providing you with a platform to add incredible value to your CV.

Make the most of your experience

One of the advantages of being a volunteer is that you will meet people from all over the world and have the opportunity to establish lifelong friendships. Many volunteers speak with great joy about the local people they lived and worked with during their stay and the relationships that they established and still maintain. We are aware that this is one of the real advantages of volunteer work and strongly encourage all our volunteers to make the most of this unique possibility to develop these cross-cultural relationships.

Besides the satisfaction and experience of helping a developing country, most volunteers enjoy taking the time to visit the local attractions. From our experience, we have learned that everyone needs a break. Therefore, we encourage our volunteers to go sightseeing when possible. All you have to do is let us know what you would like to see or do and we will do our best to make it possible.

Our Prices and Donations

The Olokii volunteer project’ has very close working relationships with the projects we offer, unfortunately, there are many organizations that offer volunteer work at extremely high prices without paying donations to the projects. The Olokii volunteer project’ has chosen to work only with projects that require a donation. As a result for every volunteer we send out, a donation is sent directly to the project.
