The most amazing experience. The work is absolutely life changing, the kids and older people are so wonderful and sweet and I'm going to miss them all so much. And the staff at the organization is friends for life, they are so welcoming and supportive and we spend all day joking with one another. And the volunteer house is absolutely beautiful. The food is insane too. I was only supposed to stay 2 weeks and ended up doubling my time here and I couldn't be more happy that I did. I couldn't recommend this program more. THANK U!

My stay with the organization was incredible! As a volunteer you experience a variety of different social support programmes which means you gain alot of new skills, and you are always supported by the amazing staff! Throughout my time there we were looked after so well by the team, from our accommodation & food to gaining information about Da Nang. Being able to make such a positive contribution to the community through the organization was a true highlight of my travels - I would recommend this experience to everyone !! Thank you to the team for all you do ❣️

I had the most amazing time at the Green House. I've never felt more welcomed in my life! Everyone that works for the organisation and in the house is incredibly kind, funny, and accommodating. The service they provide means so much to the community, and the work we do is rewarding, challenging and educational. I truly had such a wonderful 2,5 weeks and I will cherish this forever. The house is so comfortable and it feels like living with family. On top of everything, I've made friends for life! I couldn't recommend this enough.

My whole experience at the greenhouse was fantastic. Viet and his team are dedicated to make your time volunteering as comfortable and as enjoyable as possible. Nothing is too much trouble for them! You get to interact and help a range of people from all over Da nang which is extremely rewarding. The staff at the charity are so helpful in making sure you feel comfortable in doing the volunteering, but also push you to try new things. I would definitely recommend this experience to other travellers!
