To become a volunteer is not necessarily about your giving, the true essence of teaching is in the learning you derive from others. The growth of friendships and the knowledge you gain through Cultural exchange, is the very essence of why VIVPS was created. We exist so that both sides of the Cultural equation are the true beneficiaries. VIVPS projects can be undertaken on a short or long term basis with our primary focus on Education, the Environment, and Community Development. VIVPS has projects in both urban and rural areas throughout Vietnam, and offers the volunteer a unique perspective on life through its diverse range of programs.

VIVPS: We are fortunate that we are in a position to share with you an experience not easily forgotten, and humbled that we are able to assist in the growth of our beneficiaries through our volunteer program. We all live in Vietnam, we all volunteer and intimately know our program directors, and the wonderful children and young people that we serve. We have set up a national volunteer network that supports our international volunteers to make your time here easier and to provide an opportunity for lifelong friendships.

Costs: We are not here to make our fortune, this is a business, but one that firstly meets the needs of our programs before personal gain. We make a modest living allowance and have administration and operating costs, beyond that we cater to the material needs of our partners when we have the financial resources available to do so.

Accommodation: We have three programs with on site accommodation but over the past years have catered to the personal and financial needs of our volunteers. We have arranged accommodation in hostels, hotels, guest houses, home stays, and apartments for long term volunteers.

Philosophy: We are a small family of people who care for each other, our beneficiaries, and our volunteers. When you come to VIVPS you become part of this family, and you are accorded the respect and courtesy that each family member deserves. We operate our programs with a philosophy that encompasses, compassion, love, understanding and truth.
