Building Volunteer

Volunteer Work in Thailand

Starfish Ventures has helped build and develop schools, communities and homes in poor areas with the help of volunteers since Starfish was founded in 2003.

We need your help to continue this work and make a visible difference to communities, schools, individuals, or families. Whether or not you have building or DIY experience, you’ll have the time of your life and make a positive contribution to the lives of others.

Development volunteer work can involve simply painting classrooms to improve the educational environment, or helping construct new facilities at schools, or building homes for the elderly. There is so much you can be involved in. Whatever you choose your volunteer work will make a real difference leaving behind a tangible resource that will be of benefit for maybe years to come.

We are especially interested in hearing from groups, whether you are friends, colleges or at school together we very easily arrange a tailor made volunteer project. We wish to build more homes for the elderly. If you are an elderly person in Thailand and have no family for support you receive on aid from the government. Many such people are living in corrugated iron shacks. This is an opportunity for your group to make an incredible difference to the lives of an individual.

Volunteer Travel

Most Starfish volunteer work is 4 days a week. You and your fellow volunteers will have the long weekend to explore locally or further afield. Travelling and experiencing Thailand’s beauty is all part of the volunteer experience. Our staff will help you organise your free time or end of placement travel. Come to Thailand, volunteer and travel, and have an amazing time.
