It was my first volunteering and I couldn't expect a better place to begin. Everything is amazing. First of all, every half-day we contribute to a different social cause . You work with orphans, children, students, elderly. You play or do exercise with them and always in a very good and joyful atmosphere. The staff felt like family for me. Everybody is so nice and we spent a lot of time together after the workday. Moreover, the work you do has a direct impact on people. It is very fulfilling. Thank you Volunteer the organization for the amazing work you are doing everyday!

This experience was so lifechanging for me. I've never experienced something so meaningfull and I loved living amongst the locals and learning so much about the language and culture. It was incredible to work in an organisation like this: they're doing something SO good for the people here and I admire everyone working here so much. The people here really feel like family and the house feels like a home. I can't recommend this experience enough. I learnt so much during my time here and I can cry of happiness every moment when thinking back of all the memories I've made. 🥹❤️

Viet and his team are amazing. They made me feel at home and the Green House itself is very comfortable. They made sure I am well-fed with delicious Vietnamese food. Most importantly, the volunteering activities at the social support center has provided me with good insights about many aspects in life. Thanks Viet & diamond team, i will come back!

I highly recommend this experience for who wants to make a difference! The program is full of different activities, they work with elderly and children and I had the chance to teach, play, take care and in all of these, I had funny and a very time! There is a lot of work to do, so make sure you want to live this experience. However they are very organised and everytinhg is follow by the schedule. The people that I had met are awesome, they really take care of you as a family member. Also, the Green House, the house for volunteers is amazing, they provide a very good meal as well.
