Frequently Asked Questions

Is there an age requirement for volunteering?
For volunteering groups involving higher level of physical work such as building a classroom, volunteers need to be 18 years of age or over.  
For other volunteering groups involving mild physical work such as SportsForGood and UnleashMyTalent, we also welcome youth at the age of 8 or above to join together with their guardian.
​Mature volunteers who are 65 or over would need to provide evidence of good health condition and mobility as most of our volunteering tasks are physical.
Age restriction is specified on the program.
How long can i volunteer for?
We understand that our volunteers have other priorities in life hence volunteering period can be flexible.  In general, project based volunteering experiences are either 4 nights or 7 nights.  With approval from PeopleStories, volunteers may extend their volunteering experience as required and feasible.
On the other hand, skill-based volunteering opportunities normally are on-going and you can work from home for those tasks that are relevant to your skills.
what is the main LANGUAGE used where the project is located?
English is frequently spoken throughout the region however at varying levels.
​​would i be the only Volunteer?
To provide an authentic and intimate volunteering experience, our group size is limited to a maximum of 6.  From time to time, we will also have solo volunteer participating which is dependent on applications.
How will i get to the project location?
Transportation to and from the project location is provided accordingly and included in the overall costs.  Should the volunteers want to take private transportation or outside of the general routine, such arrangements can be made with an additional cost.
How often does someone from PEOPLESTORIES visit where the volunteers work takes place?
A representative from PeopleStories will be accompanying each volunteering group.  They will be working alongside the volunteers with other local staff and community members.
​is there any preparation needed before i go?
You will need to complete an online application form and arrange for your own flight. We will take care of all the rest. Once your volunteering application is approved and two weeks prior to the commencement of your volunteering experience, you will be receiving a volunteer handbook.  Follow the recommendations from this handbook and be prepared for a meaningful life experience.
how can i get more information about the volunteering project?
Each volunteering project offers its unique opportunity to satisfy the appetite for authentic travel and meaningful life experience.  To understand better, please refer to their respective 'Itinerary' as shared on this website.  For specific enquiries, please email us at Volunteering@PeopleStories.net 
do i need to have a special skill set to volunteer?
Absolutely not!  PeopleStories welcomes volunteers with an open-minded, positive attitude and genuine willingness to help others to join our volunteering experience.  
This is with the exception of skills volunteering that requirements will be specified as part of the on-line application form.  An example can be a 'Mathematics Teacher' role, which we will be seeking for a volunteer who has sound knowledge of mathematics.
​how do i apply?
  1. Fill in the details required on the online form
  2. Review all the relevant policies and documents provided as part of the online form
  3. Attach a copy of your passport, then
  4. Submit
CAN I EXTEND MY TRIP BEFORE AND/OR AFTER THE VOLUNTEERING PROGRAM?

Yes, hotel for pre and post program within Siem Reap can be arranged. Just let us know once your travel details are finalised and we are here to support.
