Volunteering.

hello,
do you want to start a non-profit organization or do you just want to join an existing organization?  if you just wanna do some volunteer work, you can help out at Buddhist temples or orphanages (sometimes they are one in the same).  I don't know of any other organizations.  if you wanna start a non-profit and have the resources, count me in.  I would like to help but I have no resource and no connections to acquire them.

In a few months, I plan to stop working. I may continue to work part-time but I won't face the necessity of earning an income.   What are the opportunities (in or near HCMC) for some kind of volunteer work?   In the UK and USA, I've had experience of the not-for-profit sector and would like to do so again.   Chris

This is the very nice thought. I recommend “Dieu Giac temple's orphanage on 177 Tran Nao, district 2. There are a lot of orphans there needing helps from benefactors like you.

Thanks,

I am interested to Volunteer in some activities in Saigon too

I know no place to do volunteering work in Saigon, but Touch The World organization in Hanoi is quite a good place to do voluntary work. You can teach Vietnamese students, especially the handicapped and kids how to speak English. I also hear that in the weekend, you can join them with the free porridge activity in the hospital if you wish so. In exchange, they will provide you with accommodation and some food.
You can search for the information of this organization and message them on Facebook.
