Travel with us through one of the most beautiful countries in South East Asia - Thailand! Volunteer in an Elephant Sanctuary where elephants, who had to work in the entertainment industry, have the chance to recover. Additionally you help educating their trainers to prevent them from going back into this entertainment industry. A well needed and valuable work you can do over there!
Do you love horses? In Ireland, we can help you land a placement on horse ranches, stud farms and riding stables, offering you free accommodation and meals in exchange for volunteering! You will not only do the whole day what you love most, but you will also learn how to get more independent and maybe launch your equine-related career! Supervised internships are also possible!
Join a wildlife rescue team and care for the animals in the sanctuary.

Observe, monitor and collect data on animals which are being rehabilitated for release. Explore the beautiful rainforest surroundings and coastal National Park in your free time.
Set in the foothills of the Carpathian Mountains in Transylvania, this sanctuary currently homes over 100 mistreated and abused bears. Rescued from cramped cages and tourist attractions, these bears can now enjoy freedom in the stunning sanctuary. Volunteers mainly help with food preparation and other ad hoc sanctuary tasks, watched over by the bears. Day trips for school groups are available.
Join our dedicated team of volunteers and contribute to sea turtle protection efforts while gaining practical experience in data collection and wildlife conservation.
