Five killer reasons to volunteer in China.
Volunteer to advance your career.
Volunteering will offer vital help to people in need, engage with communities and provide many benefits to you personally. The right match can help you connect to a worthwhile cause, improve your wellbeing, learn new skills and even advance your career.
Improve employability.
Demonstrate to potential employers that you value giving back to the community.
Energise your mind and body.
Volunteering is a fun and purposeful way to explore your interests and passions.
Connect to the community.
Make new friends, expand your overall network and boost your social skills.
Foster home for visually impaired.
This 12+ weeks program is for volunteers who will live and assist at a foster home for blind and visually impaired children and is offers hands on volunteering experience and full cultural exchange.
The mission of the organisation is to teach each visually impaired individual academic skills and assist them to reach a fulfilled life. Through providing care, education, life skills and livelihood opportunities the charity helps the children to live independently as dignified members in their society.
Grassroots NGO’s
Volunteer for 4 to 8 weeks in one of the locally operated and underfunded NGO’s that we support in Beijing.
These organisations have very limited resources – they require funding and hands-on help within a number of areas, which is where our participants can really make a positive difference.
Volunteers provide help with a range of day-to-day tasks as well as individual and group projects, according to each charity’s needs.
How can I help?
Working alongside children with special needs requires certain skills and sensitivity. To ensure that volunteers are fully prepared for their projects and to make them at ease within their roles, the foster home will provide on location training on how to work with children with disabilities during the first few days of their placement. As well as becoming actively involved in the day to day running of the foster home, volunteers will be fully immersed into the Chinese way of life, through language learning and cultural activities. Current roles available include:- English Teachers
- Paediatrician
- Health Care
- Optometrist
- Dentist
- Psychologist
- Counselor
- Specialised Educator
- Speech Therapist
- Physical Therapist
- Graphic Design
- Agricultural Expert
- Translator (English, French, Chinese)

The summer holidays are something that we all look forward to; it’s great to have a long, well-earned break; but many of us find ourselves falling into rather dull routines of boredom, when instead we could be doing something really worthwhile. Why spend such...
