Christmas Volunteer Abroad Programs – Make a Difference This Winter

2,189 Views

Looking for a meaningful way to celebrate the holiday season? Instead of the usual Christmas hustle—shopping, cooking, and planning—you can make this year truly special by giving back. Christmas volunteer abroad programs offer a unique opportunity to travel, immerse yourself in new cultures, and make a real difference in communities around the world.

Whether it’s bringing holiday cheer to underprivileged children, supporting wildlife conservation efforts, or helping communities in need, volunteering abroad during Christmas lets you experience the season in a whole new way. In this guide, we’ll explore some of the best destinations and projects for a rewarding holiday adventure.

 

Childcare Program in Delhi, India

India has more than 2 lakhs homeless children who are forced to live on the streets. There are several social welfare teams operating in the capital city of Delhi who works for the welfare and development of these kids. While some are orphans in this bunch, many have been left alone by their families due to poverty. Provide a sense of family support to these kids while volunteering in India.

Orphanage Program in Kathmandu, Nepal

 

The quaint little country of Nepal is a paradise of Asia in all literal sense. Spending your Christmas vacations in Nepal can prove to be a great opportunity for some memorable family time. Concurrently, you can provide your time, support, and love to the kids at the orphanage center under the volunteer projects in Kathmandu.  

Girls Education Program in Tamale, Ghana

This volunteer project will take you and your family to the remote areas around the main city of Tamale in Ghana. An opportunity to live amongst the natives and help the girl child in the society get educated; what better gift can one give on Christmas than gifting knowledge and education.

Volunteer Work with Disabled Children in Cusco, Peru

Explore the ancient ruins of Inca Empire, trek your way up to the historical site of Machu Picchu, witness the atavistic set of traditions and, volunteer work at a childcare center for differently abled and handicapped children in Peru.

Two Weeks Special Volunteer and Travel in Surin, Thailand

Take out a list of top visited destinations in the world from different sources, and the one name that will be there in each of these lists will be Thailand. Undoubtedly a great destination to celebrate this Christmas with your family. And to make the most of your trip to this South East Asian gem, be a part of the special volunteer and travel program to experience the best of both activities. A complete and responsible family outing.

Teaching English Program in Zanzibar, Tanzania

While at one end, African countries are stereotyped to be safari destinations, Zanzibar sits exultantly on the other hand with its archipelago. Enjoy the laid back and tranquil lifestyle on the islands of Zanzibar and help the village kids in getting a stronghold over English. Expand the team of singers for the Christmas carols this time to sing with your family.  

Community Development Project in Tamale, Ghana 

This is a great volunteer work opportunity available in Ghana, where you (along with your family) can join hands together in several community development projects in and around the city of Tamale. Work to reconstruct the village schools, provide inputs for the water conservation projects, spread awareness about the importance of hygiene, and more. This is, however, STRICTLY recommended for the families which have kids over the age of 15 years, as it involved significant physical work.

 

While your kids must be waiting all jubilantly and excited for the arrival of Santa on Christmas eves and will certainly get overjoyed with gifts the next morning, there are a few disadvantaged children who might have to wait for eternity. So, why not, rather than waiting for the Santa’s arrival at your homes, be a Santa for someone and arrive at their doorsteps with the gift of happiness, knowledge, and support. Give your family a reason to be proud of each other. Volunteer abroad this Christmas and make it merrier for many!
