Why volunteer for NGOs abroad?
The positive initiatives of NGOs are often limited by financial and staffing resources and rely heavily on international funding drives. Therefore, the support of IVHQ volunteers is invaluable in supporting NGOs to further their efforts within the community and work towards the United Nations’ Sustainable Development Goals.
Whether you want to improve the services NGOs provide to refugees and homeless communities in Belgium, help local children from low-income communities get better access to the basic necessities of life in Ecuador or use your creative skills to raise public awareness for NGOs in Europe - this is a unique opportunity to use your skills as a force for good.

”The NGO placed a lot of trust in my abilities - I felt like I contributed to a worthwhile cause at a suitable level based on my experience and expectations. I felt most connected to the country through my in-office volunteer work and out of office bonding time with my colleagues and Cambodian friends that I met while I was there. Overall, I am very thankful for the experience with IVHQ. Volunteering in Cambodia was one of the most rewarding life experiences I have ever had. I am glad that I went through a trustworthy and reliable organization like IVHQ in order to accomplish a long-standing goal I've had to volunteer in Cambodia.”
