Being a volunteer with TCDF

Being a volunteer in Thailand with the Thai Child Development Foundation will be a great new experience and adventure and for sure it means a lot of fun for many people. To become a volunteer you need to be over 21 years old, you need to flexible, being able to work indepently and in a team, know about the foundation and it's aims and of course you need to be able to communicate in English.

Being a volunteer with the foundation also means living in a simple dormitory with a lot of people, or in a old wooden house with a mattress on the floor, or sharing rooms with people you do not know. It means cooking your own meals and eat rice three times a day.

Not all people realize this when they prepare their trip to Thailand. That is why you will find 4 links to our Volunteer handbooks on this page, which you can download. In the handbooks you will read all about the projects, your role and responsibilities, what you can expect from us, the living conditions and much, much more.

Please read the information in these handbooks if you want to become a volunteer with us, after that you can click on 'How to apply' and contact us.

Volunteer handbooks

These handbooks are made for everybody who is interested in the projects done by our foundation. You will find a lot of information on all the 'whos', the 'wheres', the 'whens', the 'whats' and the 'hows' of being a volunteer or becoming one. The handbooks are illustrated with several pictures and drawings. Elementary school students made these. We think the pictures and the texts might give you some extra insight in Thai culture!

You'll make many friends
