Volunteer Thailand With Fernthai Volunteer Foundation Charity Profile

The Fernthai Volunteer Foundation Thailand was established to provide Thailands poorest kids and communities a sustainable route to work their way out of poverty. By engaging global supporters at home and active volunteers abroad who live, work and undertake cultural exchange programs we aim to help them meet this goal.

In fact, the organisation was formed by a group of former volunteers working in Thailand to bridge the gap and confront all of the problems associated with volunteering in a foreign country. We are confident our experience will enable us to not only provide you, the volunteer, a smooth, reliable and full-filling experience, but more importantly, it will stand us in great stead when it comes to actually achieving our goal - to help those who need us most. Our experience has driven together a group of like- minded individuals who strive to bring volunteering back to its purest form - that of simply giving up our time to help those less fortunate than ourselves. Our ethos is to create a foundation that can provide you, the volunteer, an affordable, achievable, opportunity to volunteer today for a brighter tomorrow - with any funds raised being used directly in the heart of the community they were intended for. Living in a high-paced western world it is so easy to forget (or ignore) the plight of those people who were born into this world without the liberties our lifestyle provides us. Well, now you have a genuine opportunity to volunteer in Thailand and do something about it. An opportunity that has been stripped of all of the complexities other organisations offer you, one that makes being a volunteer in Thailand a real possibility . More importantly, it provides you with an opportunity to really make a difference in the future outcome of someone's life. It really is a small price to pay to make a genuine impact. And what's more, believe us 100% when we say this opportunity will not only have a long lasting impact on those you help, it WILL also provide you, the volunteer, with a new, fresh, appreciative outlook on your own life itself!

The Fernthai Volunteer Foundation was originally formed to help some of Thailands poorest rural communities establish a sustainable route out of poverty. With that in mind its worth bearing in mind that unlike some organisations we don't just go into these communities and dictate what our volunteers are going to do to help these people out. We have spent a long time establishing and building relationships with them. Rather than impose ourselves we want to genuinely help them. We feel the best way that is done is by really taking the time to listen to their needs and help accordingly. As circumstances and needs change, we change, adapt and evolve as a foundation alongside them. What happens on one volunteers experience could be noticeably different to anothers as we cater our volunteering efforts to that particular moment in time.

Volunteer Thailand With Fernthai Volunteer Foundation Volunteer Information

For those of you looking for a little more out of life, an opportunity to step out of your comfort zone and really challenge your ability, then a spell volunteering in rural Thailand with some of their poorest communities could be just what you're looking for. Fernthai Volunteer Foundation was founded in Thailand following local requests to encourage foreign cultural exchange into this relatively undiscovered, and little changed community. We give global volunteers the opportunity to live and work alongside rural communities and experience a way of life they would probably otherwise, not get to see.
