    Volunteers stay in our guesthouse, receive three meals daily, and become part of a community dedicated to uplifting children. This is a meaningful opportunity to make a difference and grow personally while discovering the beauty of Sri Lanka.

    Minimum stay: 2 weeks | Contribution: €125/week (covers meals, lodging, local transport)
