Volunteering Solutions Reviews

"The incredible warmth of the children in the Kindergarten in Cusco and the loving welcome of the host family and participation in family life are truly unique! After just 2 weeks, saying goodbye is emotional and very difficult. \r\n\r\nDespite the short preparation time (booking 1 month before departure), the team made a unique experience possible. And if one or two questions were still unanswered, they were quick to deal with our concerns and always found a good solution to make fantastic tours possible alongside the volunteering. \r\n\r\nGetting to know the other volunteers and exploring a foreign country together was a special bonus.\r\n\r\nThanks to everyone for an unforgettable time!"

"I did a 2-week medical volunteering program at the Mt Meru Hospital in Arusha. The whole volunteering program was perfect, no problems at all, the staff at the housing was always kind and helpful. I'll definitely come back!!"

"Ciao sono stata un mese a Zanzibar, a casa tutto bene la famiglia di francis \u00e8 fantastica. Il problema \u00e8 stato in ospedale, eravamo troppi volontari e la dottoressa che ci divideva per i reparti ci mandava in gruppo da 5-6 per reparti in cui c\u2019erano solo 1\/2 pazienti o in cui non c\u2019era niente da fare. Il personale dei diversi reparti si vedeva chiaramente che non ci voleva intorno e che noi eravamo di troppo per cui dovreste secondo me avere pi\u00f9 comunicazione con la signora che decide dove mandarci perch\u00e9 ci avete fatto spendere soldi inutilmente, io non sono venuta a Zanzibar per fare una vacanza ma per dare il mio aiuto come infermiera. Fortunatamente ho cambiato reparto e molte cose sono migliorate ho legato grandi amicizie con alcune infermiere. \r\nQuando sono andata dalla dottoressa in ufficio per chiederle di farmi un certificato lei mi ha detto che io non sarei potuta stare l\u00ec pi\u00f9 di 28 giorni ma io le ho spiegato che con voi ho pagato per starci 30 giorni, lei in modo scocciato e scorbutico mi ha detto che avrei dovuto pagare per rimanere l\u00ec altri due giorni ma ci rendiamo conto ?? Non ci prendete in giro, io avevo gi\u00e0 pagato voi e di pagare quest\u2019ospedale che cade a pezzi per starci due giorni in pi\u00f9 assolutamente no! Per 30 giorni ho speso pi\u00f9 di 1400\u20ac per cosa? Apparte la casa ma vicino a dove alloggiavamo non c\u2019era assolutamente nulla, un bar un ristorante, nulla. Bisognava sempre spostarsi con il taxi per andare in spiaggia quindi ogni giorno avremmo dovuto spendere un sacco di soldi. Non c\u2019\u00e8 nessun tipo di comfort nella zona in cui stavamo per cui dovreste abbassare il prezzo, io la consiglio come esperienza ma non in quell\u2019ospedale e non a quel prezzo."

"I had an incredible experience volunteering with Volunteer Solutions in Rabat, Morocco. The opportunity to work in both a school and an eye hospital was truly enriching. At the school, I connected with enthusiastic students and saw firsthand the impact education has in shaping young minds. The eye hospital was equally fulfilling, offering a chance to be part of a compassionate team and contribute to improving patients' vision and lives.\r\n\r\nThe program was well-organized, and the staff provided excellent support throughout. I also had the chance to meet other like-minded volunteers from around the world, forming meaningful connections and friendships that will last a lifetime. Morocco itself is a beautiful country, rich in culture, and the experience of living in Rabat allowed me to immerse myself in the local community and traditions.\r\n\r\nI highly recommend Volunteer Solutions for anyone seeking an authentic, hands-on volunteering experience that allows you to give back while also gaining valuable skills and lifelong memories. Whether in education, healthcare, or any other field, the connections and insights I gained in Morocco were priceless, and I\u2019m grateful for the opportunity to have been part of such a transformative journey."

"Volunteering at the orphanage in Kenya was a truly amazing experience. I was touched by the warmth and love of the children, and these cherished memories will remain with me for a lifetime. I want to thank the Volunteering Solutions team for their great support throughout the entire process and for always being there to help. I highly recommend Volunteering Solutions and I will continue to share my positive experience with others."

"Real experience, living with and for children helps changing prospective...for better."

"We finished our program few weeks ago and we really enjoy It!\r\nThe coordinators are really kind and available. We had fun with children in the morning and we like discover and learn a bit about the culture here.\r\n\r\nAt the beginning we didn't know anything about the plans of the week, and we were a bit disorientated, but everithing was fine and there was a good organization.\r\n\r\nThank you for giving us this opportunity :)"
