Volunteering at the organization has been an incredibly meaningful and eye-opening experience. The compassionate environment and dedicated staff have left a lasting impression on me. I felt truly welcomed and valued as part of the team, and the opportunity to contribute—even in a small way—was humbling and inspiring. I am grateful for the chance to serve and grow alongside such an amazing community.

Of all my volunteering experiences, this one at the organization was by far the best! 😍 The place is beautiful, very peaceful, and everything is super clean, cozzy and tidy. the organization team is so welcoming, and it truly is like being at home away from home. I felt part of it from day one, and I loved cooking for everyone. 👩‍🍳 I'm leaving feeling super happy and grateful for the experience. I would definitely come back!!

My time in the organization was great ! Everyone there was super nice and friendly. Work was pretty straight foward and easygoing. For me was mostly cleaning up organizing and a little bit of cooking. Lots of nice hiking around and its near to Zermatt. Hope to go back one day!
