Because in Thailand, especially in North East Thailand people are very poor. Individual, family members are often forced to leave their children and elderly for longer periods of time, in order to travel to urban centers or abroad to work. The situation is very bad for the development of the children who are left behind without their parents.
The children have to take care of their siblings and of the old people as well. The school system is barely developed, the Schools are in need of material and teachers. Therefore Volunt2Thai's most important task is to provide those underprivileged children a chance for education. We do this via volunteers, which we send to the schools we work with.
At V2T Campus & Cultural Centre in Thailand, we welcome Volunteers or interns/project participants regardless of age, with diverse experience from all over the world and from all walks of life are welcome. As a project participant you will live directly on the campus, which is also a youth center in the afternoons after school and on weekends and during vacations.
Here you will be provided with everything you need. The campus is surrounded by nature, fields and Thai villages with which we cooperate. Volunteers take responsibility for their own daily life on campus. Your main role as a V2T volunteer will be to interact with the locals and provide support in the schools by teaching basic English skills through games and classwork.
Additionally, depending on the date, volunteers can receive free teacher training.
