Volunteering in Sri Lanka is ideal if you want to see magnificent jungles, pristine beaches, and kind people. Do you wish to repay your gracious hosts? Share your knowledge by teaching English and other subjects at local schools. Do you have any childcare experience? Volunteer at a children’s home and help with the day-to-day care of vulnerable youngsters.
Animal lovers, take note! Sri Lanka is well-known for having a huge elephant population. Volunteer in Sri Lanka to conserve elephants and prevent local strife. Volunteer for sea turtle conservation programs in Sri Lanka and help conserve sea turtles that nest on the island’s beaches.
Make a difference while enjoying a fantasy vacation in Sri Lanka, a country emerging from a thirty-year-long civil war and a horrific tsunami, yet with misty mountains, glistening beaches, and rolling waves.
With many sections of rural Sri Lanka still in the process of development, there are several chances for supplementary assistance. Whether it’s teaching English or IT, assisting a community in developing a clean drinking water project, assisting in the eradication of dengue fever, or enhancing sustainable forest use and animal conservation, a traveler with the right expertise, knowledge, and enthusiasm can make a big difference among communities in need of knowledge and direction.
Volunteering among local communities in Sri Lanka provides travelers with firsthand knowledge of a foreign culture, complete with its own customs, beliefs, food, and holidays. Working with and living among a community exposes visitors to their hopes, pleasures, and aspirations; the obstacles they confront and their successes over them; and provides an insight of a group that lives a different life yet grins and weeps like them.
Volunteers are urged to mix vacation with volunteering to make the most of their stay. A homestay with a Sri Lankan family helps them bond with the nation and its people, while locals continue to love and cherish the volunteers who are helping to improve themselves, the community, and the town.
