These could very well be the best and most rewarding moments of your holiday, moments which you remember for the rest of your life. Chiang Mai offers several good volunteer programs. On this page we list some of them.
A dog and cat shelter located about 15km south west of the city. On an average day they are taking care of about 180 dogs and are always looking for people to help out. So why not consider volunteering at Care For Dogs even if it was just to walk dogs it would be much appreciated.
Just like Care For Dogs, this shelter is dedicated to the rescue of abandoned and homeless dogs and cats and is located in the same area in Doi Saket, about 30km drive from Chiang Mai.
Elephant Nature Park focuses on elephant rescue and rehabilitation. If your looking for the best experience with elephants in Thailand you should consider volunteering here. Please note that volunteering at the Elephant Nature Park is not free. They need your donations to keep the organisation running.
