We are a local volunteer organization, and our headquarters are based in Luang Prabang, where our project is located; thus, we do not have Western "overhead costs." We are cheaper than most organizations. We started as a small volunteer placement to support local education in Luang Prabang to help local people to have a better future. All the volunteer donation fees go directly to support our local community.

Volunteers differ from tourists in their purpose and mindset. While tourists seek to be served, volunteers are here to serve. As a volunteer, it’s important to integrate into the needs of the project, rather than expecting the project to revolve around your expectations. You are encouraged to contribute where support is most needed – even if that means stepping into roles you hadn’t initially anticipated. Adaptability, initiative, and a positive attitude are essentia.l

As a local organization headquartered in Luang Prabang, where our project is located, we are able to operate without the high overhead costs often associated with international organizations. This allows us to offer more affordable rates. Nonetheless, we maintain strong local partnerships and provide a personalized, high- quality experience.

If you prefer accommodation different from our standard offering, we’re happy to arrange that and discuss the associated costs."
