Are you passionate about making a difference while exploring the world? Do you want to travel in a way that is meaningful, impactful, and affordable? The International Humanity Foundation (IHF) is excited to announce the reopening of our Voluntourism Program, a unique opportunity for individuals from around the world to experience new cultures while giving back to communities in need.

Voluntourism is more than just travel-it’s a life-changing experience where you contribute to a cause bigger than yourself.

What is Voluntourism?

Voluntourism is a blend of volunteering and tourism, allowing you to engage with local communities while enjoying the beauty and culture of a new country. At IHF, our voluntourism program is designed for individuals who want to do more than just sightsee. It’s for those who want to immerse themselves in a new culture, help others, and create lasting memories.

We believe that by opening our doors to international visitors, we create a mutually enriching exchange-you get to experience the culture firsthand, while local communities benefit from your support, skills, and kindness.

What Will You Do as a Voluntourist?

When you join our voluntourism program, you won’t just be a visitor-you’ll be a valuable part of the community. You’ll stay at IHF Jakarta Center and actively participate in various activities, including:

  • Teaching & Mentoring (Required): Help local children improve their English and life skills through interactive lessons and mentoring.
  • Community Development: Support community projects that benefit underprivileged families and create sustainable impact.
  • Cultural Exchange: Learn about local traditions, customs, and languages while sharing your own experiences and perspectives.
  • Hands-On Impact: Work alongside dedicated individuals and fellow volunteers, making meaningful contributions every day.
  • Environmental & Social Projects :Engage in initiatives that promote sustainability, education, and social empowerment.

No prior teaching or volunteering experience is required-just a willingness to learn, adapt, and contribute!

What’s Included?

As a voluntourist, you’ll stay in our IHF Jakarta Center, where you’ll have access to:

  1. Comfortable Accommodation - Safe and welcoming living spaces.
  2. Nutritious Meals - Enjoy delicious local food prepared three times daily.
  3. A Supportive Community- Connect with like-minded individuals from all over the world.
  4. An Authentic Travel Experience- Live like a local while making a real impact.

Cost: Only $200 per week, with a maximum stay of 1 month, for accommodation, food, and donation to Jakarta Center-much cheaper than a hotel, but you will have an infinitely meaningful experience while also making a real difference in the lives of local children!

By contributing to your stay, you’re directly supporting our programs and ensuring that we can continue to help those in need.

Why Join the IHF Voluntourism Program?

  • Travel with a Purpose - Go beyond being a tourist; become a force for change.
  • Gain New Skills- Improve leadership, teaching, and cross-cultural communication skills.
  • Make a Real Impact - Your presence and efforts will have a lasting effect on the lives of children and families.
  • Great for Students & Professionals - Enhance your resume with real-world experience in community service.

Create Lifelong Memories - Build friendships and unforgettable experiences while exploring a new part of the world.

Who Can Apply?

Our voluntourism program is open to individuals from all backgrounds-whether you’re a student, a working professional, a retiree, or just someone seeking a meaningful adventure.
