The biggest challenge in Responsible Volunteering is to truly make a difference.
That’s why we listen to your ideas and give you the opportunity to develop your own projects. Real impact can only grow through interaction — between you as a volunteer, our local project partners, and us. Together, we need the will, endurance, and dedication to bring change. And most importantly, we need to start caring for each other again.
Having an impact by truly getting involved
We are different from commercial volunteering organisations because we care — about the people and about the outcome of every project. Many commercial agencies create artificial projects simply to please paying volunteers. Their focus is not on helping communities but on maintaining the illusion of doing good.
Your voluntary work can only have an impact when you truly connect with your project. You make a difference when you identify with the work you do. Don’t see yourself as a short-term helper — see yourself as part of the team. Because to us, you are part of it!
We want you to go beyond daily tasks. Bring your own ideas, your experience, your creativity.
You can help us shape new initiatives and strengthen existing ones.
We will listen to your ideas — and if your plan is realistic, we’ll help you implement it.
Do you have the dedication to start something meaningful and sustainable?
Listening to your input to start new projects
To create real impact, we need your insight. You spend the most time directly at your volunteer placement — that gives you a perspective we might not have. You see what works and what could be improved. You interact daily with local staff, children, and families — your observations are invaluable.
That’s why we see you as an expert in your placement.
Your feedback helps us adjust, grow, and sometimes even start entirely new initiatives. We value your suggestions and, whenever possible, we support your ideas — often in cooperation with our German partner organisation hamromaya Nepal e.V..
Responsible Volunteering can only succeed if we work together.
