Program Fee & Dates | Tell a Frien | Testimonials

Volunteer & Intern Aboard Volunteer with Wildlife Orphanage Project Mini-Volunteer & Travel Himalayan Tours/Treks

Our program fee is 40-100% less than most international volunteer organizations.

Today, there exists fierce competition between professional volunteer, internship, and study abroad programs. Even though our offices are located in Asia, we cannot recruit volunteers unless we advertise heavily in United States and Europe. Advertising companies in the US and Europe are expensive.

Moreover, Asia Horizon is a self-reliant, independent, and non-profit organization. We do not accept or receive funding from any religious, corporate, or government agencies and contributors. Therefore, we must charge our participants a reasonable fee in order to keep our program running effectively.

All of Asia Horizon’s programs solely rely on program fees. With the fees volunteers pay to enroll in the program, Asia Horizon is able to attain its goals, thus empowering local communities and allowing Westerners to participate directly in Eastern traditions. Ultimately, Asia Horizon, its diligent volunteers, and its hopeful grassroots organizations are able to work toward deeper cultural understandings.
