Love Volunteers is a not-for-profit organisation that provides fun, rewarding, safe and affordable volunteering opportunities in developing countries around the world.
Love Volunteers has teamed up with a reputable NGO to recruit and send volunteers to Nepal on essential assignments there. Nepal makes an appealing destination for volunteers intent on making a difference amid a distinctly different culture.
Volunteer placements are based at health posts or hospitals, and are either Government-run or managed by the local community, in rural and urban areas. The locations include Kathmandu, Dhading, Syangja, among other locations within Nepal. Among the most impoverished groups within Nepal's population, there is a continual need to mobilise health workers. Volunteers in Nepal work closely with Nepalese doctors and nurses. We can place volunteers in the pre-arranged Health Camps managed by the Government or the community people.
Volunteers in Nepal on the Health and Medical Programs must either be medical professionals/medical students or have demonstrable knowledge in the health and medicine field. The activities that volunteers are involved in include raising public awareness of health and hygiene and sanitation issues, listening to and counselling local people on their health problems, checking patients and distributing medication.
Fees for volunteer programs in Nepal start at US$195 per week, which includes accommodation (home-stays), three meals a day, an airport pick-up (if required), orientation and 24/7 in-country support.
