Live in Volunteer Program
Our live-in volunteer program is designed to allow people seeking adventure in Siargao to have a meaningful impact on the community while enjoying everything the island has to offer, and experiencing Siargao from an authentic, local perspective.
If you want to experience the real siargao, while making a difference on your holiday, this is the program for you.
The Details:
- Volunteers will live in Sun Crew HQ, located in the surf town of Pacifico.
- Volunteers will be assigned a Sun Crew project/activity to work on based on their preferences and experiences.
- Volunteers will be expected to contribute an average of 4 hours of work per day throughout their stay.
Volunteer investment in the experience of a life-time:
Volunteers will be charged a small fee to cover the cost of accommodation, food and excursions, and sponsoring the snacks for children participating in our literacy and numeracy programs during the course of your stay.
- 500PHP ($8 USD) per day or
- 12,000PHP ($200 USD) per month
Our volunteer fee covers the costs of your stay, allowing us to invest our funds in delivering high-quality programs for the children of Siargao. To put this in perspective, the minimum fee for a hostel 12-bed dorm in Pacificio (with no meals included) is 800 pesos per person/night. As part of our volunteer crew, you will be staying in a premium location for a very small price and contributing to building brighter futures for the children of Siargao.
The Inclusions:
- Accommodation in a 4-person air-conditioned dorm room with two shared bathrooms.
- Breakfast and lunch included daily
- Discount on surfboard rentals, lessons and food at Pacifico Surf School
- Weekly cultural/ environmental excursion to Siargao's hidden gems.
Volunteers will also be invited to participate in optional affordable excursions, tours and social activities at their own additional expense.
