Ne travaillant pas pour le moment, mon compagnon et moi même cherchons à partir afin d'apporter notre aide aux Antilles.
Nous sommes tous deux d'anciens pompiers et militaires de la sécurité civile, je ne sais pas si cela peut représenter un plus.
Savez vous quelle association nous pouvons joindre, hormi La Croix rouge ? Ou si une aide directement sur place est envisageable ?
Merci d'avance pour votre aide !
Bonjour,
Nous sommes un couple avec beaucoup d'expériences en tout domaine construction particulierement et nous aurions Janvier et février de disponible pour aller aider.
Pare-contre nous aimerions être nouris et logés gratuitement.
Alors si quelqu'un connais des contacts merci de les communiquer.
Nous résidons au Canada.
Bonjour Sophie. Il se trouve que j'ai le même souhait que le votre pour donner de mon temps et de mon aide aux sinistrés des Antilles. Cela n'est pas si simple, car je suis seule à désirer partir et malgré mes recherches auprès des actions bénévoles (croix rouge, petit frère des pauvres...etc) , je me retrouve sur ce site de voyage à lire votre annonce. Je n'ai pas de formation spécifique en qualité de secouriste, mais une large expérience du transport public (enfants/adultes en situation d'handicap entres autres). J'ai également le permis de transport de marchandises. En comptant sur ma prédominance à l'empathie, je pense pouvoir me rendre utile. Reste à envisager les frais de voyage?...et d'hébergement. Ce pourquoi, il serait plus aisée pour moi de partir en groupe. Merci de m'avoir lu et de m'apporter vos idées.
Bonjour et merci pour votre message,
Nous cherchons toujours à partir mais cela semble vraiment compliqué !
Dans un premier temps des locaux m'ont conseillé de ne pas m'y rendre par mes propres moyens, sous peine de payer une amende...
Nous essayons donc les associations, mais pour le moment rien du tout... je commence à désespérer
Je vous tiens au courant si nous trouvons quelque chose !
Ok Sophie. Merci infiniment pour votre réponse. Je me suis inscrite à différents organismes (croix rouge, secours populaire) ...Et j'attend aussi sans trop de conviction des réponses positives de leurs parts. ...Affaire à suivre...Donc. A très bientôt. Viviane

My question might seem a bit out of place in a "travel" forum, but I’m giving it a shot anyway.
I’m thinking about sponsoring a child in Vietnam.
After some online research, I’ve found a lot of organizations that offer this, but I’m struggling to make a choice.
Could anyone guide me in making my decision?
Thanks in advance and have a great day.

I’m a volunteer leader at a youth center (MJC), and we’ve been deeply moved by everything happening in Madagascar—extreme poverty, endangered animals, deforestation, and so on. Plus, one of our teens has a Malagasy friend, so our group wants to travel there next year.
Throughout this year, they’ve planned fundraisers to collect donations (sheets, dish towels, schoolbooks, hygiene products, etc.) and funds to cover their trip and stay.
They’re really motivated and generous—they already volunteer in schools and senior centers, and they’re always welcomed warmly.
But so far, they haven’t found any organizations in Madagascar willing to host them for two weeks (orphanages, schools, animal protection parks, etc.).
Does anyone know of any contacts, please?
Looking forward to your replies. Have a great evening!
After 8 months of volunteering in Tanzania at a center for street children, I’d like to go back for a year in the same kind of role—this time in Burkina. So I’m looking for contacts in this field, in Ouaga or elsewhere. I’m *super* motivated! It’s been over two years since I got back from Tanzania, and I’m starting to feel restless!
Thanks so much!!
Emmanuelle.
Solidafrica is a recognized humanitarian association of general interest. We donate wheelchairs in Africa. We currently have 2 wheelchairs that we would like to give to our partner, the Benin Handisport Federation. If you're traveling to Benin, alone or with someone, we could give you one of these 2 wheelchairs (or both). Out of the 40 kg of luggage you're allowed, a wheelchair will only take up less than half. Our partner can pick it up at Cotonou Airport...
Help us give away at least one of these wheelchairs, turning your trip into a solidarity and humanitarian action.
Don't hesitate to ask us for more information.

We've already done this through the VoyageForum site, and everything went very smoothly. We're present at departure from one of the Paris airports, just in case.
Hi,
I’m interested in humanitarian missions—want to explore and help others while showing my kids how things work elsewhere and pitching in.
Looking for advice.
Hello, we’d like to travel as a family to Madagascar (2 parents, 2 kids aged 10 and 12). A first trip over 15 years ago completely amazed and moved me with its beauty, kindness, and life experiences—but also its poverty and hardship. That’s why I think it’s possible to introduce our kids to this island while also doing something useful through volunteering. The window is short—15 days in March 2020—which means avoiding the north and east of the island due to cyclones and focusing on the south instead. Some ecovolunteering projects exist online, but the cost is sometimes prohibitive, and kids are rarely accepted. Do you have any ideas or contacts? Thanks in advance!
