Volunteer in China

Embark on a rewarding international adventure and put your skills to good use with our China Volunteer Program. Join us in Beijing or Shanghai, where you’ll have the chance to leave your mark on a local community whilst developing your professional skills and laying the foundation for a fulfilling career. Working for an NGO or charity in one of these two cities, you’ll gain experience with various projects ranging from marketing and events, to fundraising and teaching.

This all-inclusive program means that outside of work, you’ll take part in additional volunteer activities, weekly Chinese classes, and cultural events designed to give you a deeper understanding of China and further enrich your experience. Simply let us know when you want your placement to begin, and we’ll take care of the rest!

Volunteer Program Highlights

Learn Mandarin Chinese

Our innovative teaching method is specially designed to suit western learners by focusing on practicing spoken Chinese in day to day situations. Learning in small groups for 4 hours per week, you’ll quickly gain language skills that will help you communicate during your volunteer placement.

Make a Difference

Make an impact on the lives of the locals with a volunteer placement in an area of your choice. Alongside your placement, you’ll take part in additional NGO activities designed to equip you with a broader volunteer experience and a deeper understanding of the issues that different communities face.

Discover Modern China

Volunteering in Beijing or Shanghai will give you a unique perspective on the nations’ rapid economic growth. You’ll spend your days helping less advantaged communities, and your spare time exploring one of the region’s most vibrant and exciting cities with likeminded people from around the world.
