PARTENAIRE

The mission of DaLaa is to coordinate the hosting of volunteers in active communities leaded by our hosts. We always have dreamed to start our own association community. It is the best introduction to all new comers and reveals our values of volunteering to the world, the first entrance to our new members right around our rural office Since 2015 that we have moved to this village, we have been continuously working or the surrounding, gardening and doing activities with the local kids. Volunteers can also expect cooking class, seeds conservation, recycling, repairing or construction. We wish our motivated volunteers to join English teaching with the local schools. Moreover, we regularly organize extra activities such as mini work camps in the week-ends, International seminars, visit our MLTV placements and we are open to all new ideas. We are located in Kok Riang village, Klong Hoy Khong district, Songkhla province, It is about 30 minutes away from Hatyai city and 15 minutes from the airport.
