bonjour tout le monde,
Normalement fin janvier je pars à Madagascar faire du volontariat. J'aurais aimé discuter avec des personnes ayant vécu une expérience similaire afin de recueillir quelques conseils
En fait je vais entre antananarivo et antsirabe.
Je vous remercie de votre générosité et srait super heureuse d'avoir des infos car pour l'instant je stresse un peu...
C'est mon premier voyage toute seule!!
Merci beaucoup
Nanette

je suis partie 3 mois a madagascar pr un voyage humanitaire, je me rappelle avoir stressee avant de partir mais aujourd hui je ne regrette rien, c est la plus belle experience de ma vie.Il faut le dire cela n a pas etait easy tous les jours car c est un pays tres pauvre, tu es vraiment confronte a la pauvrete et le fosse culturel est big, mais les gens sont extra.C est aussi un pays magnifique, paysages innoubliables.Si tu as des questions n hesite pas.En fait que vas tu y faire exactement moi c etait pr la construction d une ecole ds un village en brousse(pas d eay, pas d electricite la vie a la dure mais on si fait tres vite)

Coucou, en fait je vais au seiin d'une asociation d'aide à l'éducation des enfants dans un petit village. J'ai trouvé l'association sur internet et je me suis lancée. Je leur ai demandé s'ils avaient besoin de volontaire. Ils m'ont dit que les demandes étaient nombreuses et aprés deux jours de com internet ils ont accepté de me prendre. Pour tout te dire, je ne suis pas tranquille car je n'ai rien signé, ils me connaissent à peine et m'ont pas demandé beaucoup d'informatioonssur moi.donc la je suis un peu en questionnement.
Et toi tu es parti avec une ong ou une asso? Je viens de recevoir un mail d'une ong qui fait de la reconstructioooon dans la foret et qui aide les populations locales. Le problème c'est qu'ils demandent une participation de 3euros par jour plus des conditions d'hébergement pas top. En fait à l'heure actuelle, je crains de partir avec la première asso du fait que je les sens un peu vague mais mon deuxième contact ne me branche pas plus. Mais bon, il faut que j'ai confiance. Et toi tes conditions de départ s'étaient déroulées comment? tu a connu comment l'asso avec laquelle tu es partie? Cela ta couté combien?
Merci pour ton mail en tout cas, il ma encore plus motivé pour partir!!!

avec des copains ns avons monte ce projet pendant 1an, trouver de l argent faire un cahier des charges.Le projet d une construction d ecole ns a ete propose par un eglise du quartier d un copain et il cherchait 4jeunes pr travaillier sur ce projet.On a du payer l avion notre nouriture apres on a loge chez l habitant ds des cases c etait fun, sinon chez des pretres.
Franchement faut que tu y parte, essaye peut etre de trouver une organisation plus sure.Madagascar est un pays magnifique.La proposition de l ong me samble bien, les condition de logement ne sont jamais top moi ds la case ou je dormais sur du boit y avait des cafards, des sourie mais tu t habitues et apres tu en rigole, il n y avait pas de toilette non plus, c est ds la nature.
j avoue c est pas easy tous les jours mais ce n est pas insurmontable, on n avait aussi qu un seau d eau chacun par jours pr se laver et encore c etait du luxe.
bonne chance et si envie de parler n hesite

merci pour ton message. Il m'a confirmé ce que je pensais! Je suis encore très motivée pour partir et finalement l'asso qui ne me semblait pas trés sure m'a contactée en me fournissant des renseignements précis sur elle, donc je me sens un peu plus en confiance. Ton expérience de voyage a dut etre extraordinnaire. Si cela ne te dérange pas, j'aurais aimée savoir combien cela ta couté en nourriture et en logement. Je te remercie et bon courage à toi.

My name is Valerie and I live in France. I’m a street artist—I perform street shows that blend circus and clowning. I also work as a clown in hospitals and retirement homes in France.
I’m planning to spend two months in Morocco from January 19, 2027, to March 13, 2027. I’ll be traveling in a truck, so I’ll be mobile.
I’d love to offer my time as a volunteer to perform a show that’s suitable for all audiences (kids and adults) in village squares. I’d also like to visit hospitals and orphanages as a clown.
My route will start in Nador, then head down to Merzouga, before making my way to the coast either above or below Agadir. Toward the end of my trip, I’ll return to Zagora and Merzouga before leaving from either Nador or Tangier.
I already have contacts in Merzouga and Zagora. Next, I’d like to head toward the coast above or below Agadir, and I’m looking for contacts (associations, orphanages, hospitals) in that area or along my route.
Don’t hesitate to reach out if you have any questions.

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!
