Mission Statement

V2T, Volunt2Thai - Volunteer to Thailand (Volunt2Thai Campus & Cultural Centre) is a relief project but also a youth and community centre in the northeastern region in Issan. It aims to encourage the development of our region. Our goal is to help farmers and families, particularly the children, of the villages to build a better future. To achieve this, we teach them foreign languages and general knowledge.

Description

Volunt2Thai, A Decade of Making a Difference

The Volunteer to Thailand "Volunt2Thai" project, active for more than 10 years in Thailand, particularly in the Northeast, focuses on village development with a special emphasis on supporting disadvantaged children. In this region, many people are extremely poor and individual family members often have to leave their children and elderly relatives behind for extended periods to seek work in urban centers or abroad. This situation has severe impacts on the development of children who are left without their parents and have to take care of their siblings and elderly family members. The local school system is underdeveloped, facing a critical shortage of teaching materials and trained teachers.

Volunt2Thai offers a plethora of activities for volunteers. Whether your interest lies in sports, yoga, physiotherapy for the elderly, languages, music, nature and cultivation, or even culinary arts like baking bread and preparing meals with homegrown vegetables, there is something for everyone. The program is tailored for different types of volunteers, including recent graduates, holders of TEFL, TESOL, or CELTA certificates, those seeking teaching practice, retirees, veterans, and families with teenagers and children. It's an ideal platform for individuals, families, or partners looking to contribute their skills and create lasting memories.
