Discover Laos' ancient city of Luang Prabang, a UNESCO World Heritage Site, and teach English to Buddhist novice monks and fellow community members. Somewhat surprisingly English is the most popular subject at schools in this idyllic city and your involvement in this project will help to balance the teacher to student ratio, increasing employment opportunities of those who attend practical and conversational classes. This project provides a rare opportunity to experience life in a temple school. Down time can be spent thoroughly immersing yourself in Laos' rich culture, exploring the local sites and visiting the beautiful waterfalls along the Mekong river.
Specific Requirements: The volunteer is required to organise their own flights and insurance and cover the cost of their program.
Please send initial interest to partners@gviworld.com

Mission Statement
Build an efficient, open, thriving marketplace that connects people who have community and world-changing ideas with people who can support them.
Description
GlobalGiving was founded by two former World Bank executives who decided to use the Internet to create a highly efficient marketplace. The GlobalGiving platform enables more funding to reach projects throughout the globe, and, at the same time, provides a more transparent, engaging way for donors to give.
Because we enable donors to give directly to projects, they know exactly where their money is going. Donors can see progress updates on most projects as funding is received and goals are met.
Donations made through GlobalGiving are higher impact because:
- Money is going directly to a well-defined project versus supporting general operating expenses
- Projects on globalgiving.com have exposure to thousands of donors, enabling us to aggregate multiple sources of funding for each project
- Many projects on globalgiving.com are located in the developing world where a little money goes a long way
