What do our past volunteers say?

“I enjoyed working on the placement with all the kids. However, I would prefer to be given some activities we could use to improve the English level of the children because the placement teacher insists on teaching only the ABC, animals, and fruit names that the kids already know. The place we stayed was in a very nice area, close to a market, clean and comfortable and the meals were tasty and very well cooked. The coordinators and staff were really nice people, always willing to help and offer their knowledge and support. Thank you, everyone!!!” – Tsampika Kelepera, Short-Term Volunteering in Delhi, India

Good to know

Frequently asked questions

What is a two-week volunteer abroad programme?
A two-week volunteer abroad programme is a short, structured placement letting you contribute to a community-led project within a fortnight. It is ideal if you have limited time but still want a meaningful, hands-on experience overseas. Volunteering Solutions is a certified B Corporation running ethical short programmes.
Who can join a two-week programme?
Two-week programmes suit students, professionals on leave and first-time volunteers, with participants generally aged 17 and over. Younger volunteers can join selected family and high-school programmes. No special qualifications are needed for most placements, just commitment for the two weeks.
What can I realistically achieve in two weeks abroad?
In two weeks you can support ongoing, community-led projects such as teaching, childcare, conservation or healthcare across our 23 countries in Asia, Africa, Europe and Latin America. Because projects continue beyond your stay, your contribution adds to a longer effort. Check the programme pages for specifics.
How much does a two-week volunteer programme cost?
Fees start from around US£213 per week on the most affordable programmes and typically include accommodation, meals, airport pickup and in-country support, while flights, insurance and visas are extra. Programmes also run from 1 to 24 weeks if you want longer. Check the programme pages for current pricing.
Can a short two-week trip still make a real difference?
Yes. As a certified B Corporation, we design community-led projects that run continuously, so your two weeks build on lasting local efforts rather than standalone visits. Our in-country teams ensure your work meets genuine community needs, and you get orientation plus 24/7 support.
