    Overview
    As well as helping at shelters, the program also focuses on rescuing animals in need of help during natural disasters, those experiencing violence and abuse, and dogs trapped in “dog farming” situations where they are mistreated and eventually used for food. Through this program, you can help clean, feed, and care for these animals, providing them with a better quality of life.

    While the Animal Care Program and shelters are spread out throughout the city, your home base or guesthouse is located in the heart of Seoul, just a few hours from the airport. During the program, you will work alongside the local team named “Care” to offer assistance and care to animals in various shelters across Seoul. This non-profit organisation has been operating since 2002, dedicated to rescuing animals from abuse and neglect. Additionally, they run campaigns to encourage foreigners to adopt stray animals and help them find their new homes.

    Location
    Seoul, the capital of South Korea, is a bustling and dynamic metropolis that seamlessly blends modernity with traditional Korean culture. With a population of over 10 million people, Seoul is a vibrant and exciting city that offers endless opportunities for exploration and adventure. Visitors can experience traditional Korean culture by visiting the city’s many historic temples, palaces, and markets, or they can indulge in the city’s vibrant nightlife scene by visiting its many bars, nightclubs, and restaurants. Seoul is also known for its innovative technology, fashion, and music industries, making it a hub of creativity and innovation.

    Project Tasks

    • Please note - Daily Transportation
      The transportation costs are not included in the program. Typically, we take a bus from the accommodation, and the round-trip cost is less than 3 euros per day.
