FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS
Why should I pay for participating?
It is critical that you understand the concept of traveling abroad to volunteer independently or to get mediation with reliable thorough information on the organization you will support when you arrive in Bali. With over a decade of work and commitment to support local organizations in every project they have, our mediation throughout the year of connecting young and senior volunteers from around the world to Bali's local community projects such as schools, non profits, conservation centers has been our strongest suit. Our program fee logic is to provide responsible and quality volunteer programs
Before deciding, be aware of the pro's and con's of organizing a volunteer trip to Bali on your own or to get wholesome assistance from organizations like ours. We are a team of professional young people, who have committed ourselves to providing full-time support for volunteers, who want to make sure that their support is sustainable and valuable, while exploring Bali with like-minded people.
How can I get funding for my voluntary work program in Bali?
We have assisted hundreds of international students and graduates finding their funded internships and voluntary work throughout the years. Our team will provide guidance on identifying suitable scholarships and grants, preparing application materials, and navigating the application process. Read more about finding funding here.
Can I stay longer than 4 weeks?
Sure! Some programs even have a minimum duration of 8 weeks.
All programs are available up to a duration of 24 weeks (6 months)! After the first 4 weeks, an additional fee of starting from 50-80 Euro applies per week, which includes our service and your accommodation fees are varied based on the program’s location.
What does visa assistance mean?
Visa assistance means that we will mediate you to provide you assistance, information and guidance during your visa application. Visa costs are not included in our service fee and need to be settled directly to your visa inviter as the current visa applications due to the global pandemic are all done online and directly to the Immigration Official site and visits to the embassy of Indonesia have been eliminated entirely. During your program in Bali, our team will assist you to arrange your visa extension after your first 60 days in Bali. This includes providing you with necessary contacts from visa agents and extension documents. The extension fees are not included in our service fee and need to be settled at the immigration office in Bali directly.
Will I still get support from Bali Internships throughout my program?
Yes, definitely! Although you will have a volunteer mentor, we will always be there to support you.
