Company Details

Half of IHF's mission is to educate the poor and the other half is to educate the world about the poor. Our vision is to strive for a world of leaders and citizens who have interacted with, and are truly knowledgeable about the world's poor. We believe in a "pass it on" philosophy where education is free and available for all who seek it. Those of us who have received a free education pass it on by helping others less fortunate by teaching, interacting and learning. With just a few hours a week, our volunteers, children and sponsors are changing the world we live in.

IHF is a non-religious, non-political, non-profit organization that strongly believes in an equal opportunity for all and in preserving the cultures, traditions and beliefs of the marginalized communities it works in.

We are always on the lookout for volunteers, we have two options: becoming a Voluntourist or a Work Study Volunteer.

Volunteer to help children in Kenya, Thailand and Indonesia

The International Humanity Foundation (IHF) is seeking forward-thinking, dynamic individuals of all ages/backgrounds to contribute to our education centers in Indonesia, and our children’s homes Kenya and Thailand, as part of our Work-Study Volunteer Program.

  • Teaching, organising workshops/activities, caring for kids

  • Work with our Media, Fundraising and Online Outreach teams

  • Learn about poverty and development

Each IHF center is a product of its environment and follows the cultural code and norms of its host country, so there are different programs in each center. Your work as a volunteer with IHF will be divided between local and international tasks. Locals tasks are teaching English, computer and math classes in our education centers, or assisting with the care of our children and organising activities in our children’s homes. There are also additional projects to help with in all centers.

For your international tasks you will be assigned teams, made up of volunteers in all centers, and work on administrative tasks for not just the center you are staying in, but the whole organisation. Areas assigned include Online Outreach, Media and Fundraising. This is a great opportunity to experience not only the hands on, in-field side of development, but also the overall management and running of an international organisation. Some pre-trip tasks must be completed in order to gain an understanding of the kind of work you will be doing.

  • Fluent written and spoken English is required

  • Minimum stay is 4 weeks

  • Cost: $55 - $75 per week

  • Basic food and accommodation included

  • Cost decreases for longer stays

Please take the time to familiarize yourself further with our organization - www.ihfonline.org. And to our blog http://ihfblog.wordpress.com/home/.

If you have any questions at this time, feel free to e-mail one of our helpful volunteers - [email protected] . If you’re ready to apply visit: http://www.ihfonline.org/volunteering.

Become a Voluntourist in Kenya, Indonesia or Thailand

The International Humanity Foundation (IHF) is seeking forward-thinking, dynamic individuals of all ages/backgrounds to contribute to our education centers in Indonesia, and our children’s homes in Kenya and Thailand.

  • Work with children, teach, organise workshops/activities

  • Assist with projects in the community

  • Still have time to explore and travel

Each IHF center is a product of its environment and follows the cultural code and norms of its host country, so there are different programs in each center. Your responsibilities will include teaching English, computer and math classes in our education centers, or assisting with the care of our children and organising activities in our children’s homes. You will work four hours a day, six days a week. There is time to sightsee, but work remains a priority.

This is an ideal opportunity to gain experience in development firsthand, but still have time to explore the local area. With the chance to experience Balinese Hinduism, the busy capital of Jakarta or beautiful, wild Sumatra, Indonesia's rich and deep cultural diversity means each of our centers is unique. Our Kenya center offers access to numerous wildlife parks and safaris, and our Thailand center is in the vicinity of incredible temples, waterfalls and scenery.

  • Cost: $150 per week, no application fee

  • Basic food and accommodation included

  • Minimum stay 2 weeks
