The Home Stay and Cultural Exchange Program is a great way to experience Nepali culture, and can be arranged in most areas of Nepal with one of our 30 host families. Participants will be placed with a host family in a small rural village, which provides volunteers with an excellent opportunity to immerse themselves in all aspects of Nepali culture, lifestyle, language, food, and people. The cultural exchange also allows the volunteer to offer knowledge of their own culture and customs with their host family as well. During their stay, volunteers will attend two hours of language lessons in the morning and afternoon. Opportunities will also be given to visit and help out at local schools. The Nepali culture is very friendly and hospitable, and many participants feel as though they are a part of the host family. Our local coordinators will be available to help volunteers.

The Health Post Program is beneficial for doctors, medical students, nurses, and nursing students. Volunteers have the opportunity to work in hospitals and community health clinics in various locations in Nepal. Volunteers will assist the staff in dressing wounds, administering vaccinations, drawing blood, holding babies as they are treated, and helping to screen and organize patients. Volunteers can also assist in obtaining medicines and supplies, and helping out in daily activities. Volunteers can also organize health programs in their placement. This program provides a wonderful chance to support local doctors and nurses in a country where health care is a major issue, and the availability of trained staff in rural areas is low. Volunteers have the change to make a huge difference in the community.
