Petite présentation rapide de ma demande :
Nous sommes 4 étudiants en éducation spécialisé (28, 25, 23 et 20 ans) et nous cherchons une association ayant un but social ou humanitaire au Vietnam.
En effet grace à notre formation nous avons la chance de pouvoir partir à l'étranger avec une bourse dans le cadre d'une action humanitaire/sociale.
Cependant après avoir regardé quelques sites internet, je suis un peu sidéré de voir que les offres pour bénévoles sont payantes ... Et ayant passé 1 mois sur place en 2011 je suis encore plus sidéré par les prix demandés.
Donc si vous avez connaissance d'une association (si possible non payante) acceptant les bénévoles (pour juillet 2012) nous sommes très interessés !
tu as raison, etre benevole ou volontaire au VN est payant, et c'est cher...
mais bon si ces associations mafieuses trouvent des pigeons pour les financer..
j'en donne une que j'ai deja signale comme mafieuse : GVN vietnam a Danang entre autre a eviter
Effectivement, après avoir cherché pendant longtemps une organisation au Vietnam pour faire du volontariat, je n'en ai pas trouvé!
Il faut donc passer par un organisme qui se fait payer et qui est en relation avec les ONG au Vietnam.
Si jamais tu changes d'avis, les organismes les plus connus et les moins chers sont IVHQ, Love Volunteers, Ubelong.
Dans mon cas, je me suis décidée à partir avec Ubelong (basé à Washington DC), ils sont en relation avec Vietnam for Peace.
! Si tu trouves quelque chose tu me feras signe aussi. - De mon côté j'ai fais affaire avec CADIP.org Qui est aussi payant. Cadip n'est pas une organisme même s'il elle se définie comme tel. Souvent tu payes 2 associations. Celle qui t'envoi (celle que tu dois trouver et regarder les prix) et l'organsime hôte (celle qui te recois) exemple volunteer for peace. L'argent que tu payes pour l'organsime hôte permette de te nourrir loger et rénumérer certain vietnamien qui te recoit. Il permet aussi de donner l'oportunité à de jeune volontaire vietnamien impliqué dans l'organisation de faire un chantier à l'international.
Mais bon. Tu te fais arnaquer quand même parce que tu dois impérativement passer par un organisme (qui d'apres moi ne devrait pas s'appeler comme ca) placer dans un pays occidental qui te charge des couts juste pour te mettre en contact avec l'autre organisme au vietnam. Mais bon...

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!
