AVA is looking for volunteers to help clean up some of the worlds most beautiful landscape. Nepal has some of the worlds most amazing scenery. Unfortunately, much of it is covered in trash. We are not only trying to clean up areas of Nepal, including water, but setting an example for the local people and teaching them about the importance of keeping their country clean.
Before you start volunteering you will be given cultural and language training and taken to see some fantastic local sights.
This program has no time requirements. You can volunteer from a couple of weeks to 5 months. Training starts on the 1st and 15th of every month. You must be in relatively good health.
Prices start at $295 US and go up depending on how long you would like to stay in Nepal and what training package you choose.
Where does my money go?
Your money covers transportation while you are in Nepal. We will pick you up from the airport, to and from the training village and to and from your placement. It also covers supervision of the projects and staff coming to visit you while you are at your work site and home stay to make sure you are doing well.
Your fee also covers administration costs for our partner organization your host family receives payment for your rent, food and clean water. Money from each volunteer is put into a project fund to help pay for supplies.
Depending on what package you choose, training materials and a language teacher are provided. Also 2 – 4 nights in a hotel and meals are supplied for you while you are staying in Kathmandu and at your home stay during your training.
Other Cost's Incurred
You will also be responsible to pay for your own flight, traveller's health insurance, police report, vaccinations and airport tax. We recommend you bring an extra $25.00 a week for spending money. You may want to eat out and meet up with other volunteers on your weekends. You will most likely want to bring home some souvenirs as well. We also recommend you bring extra money and plan to do some travelling while you are in Nepal. You will find it very cheap in Nepal compared to your own country.
