Volunteer for programmes like cleaning coastal areas, waterfalls, and local towns, restoring local landmarks, and community outreach days at a day care facility for disabled children.
With many travellers now wanting to help combat climate crisis and participate in sustainability initiatives during their holidays, The Sarojin hotel in Khao Lak, Thailand decided in October 2019 to offer guests the chance to help give back to the local community and join the team on their regular ‘Sarojin Cares’ days outside of the resort.
The team at the Sarojin have been running ‘Sarojin Cares’ days since 2011, with staff participating once a month in a local environmental or community activity. These have included; cleaning a nearby town, coastlines and a waterfall, restoring and painting the bridge at White Sand Beach and joining the local Camillian Centre – a day care facility for disabled children – for a day of arts and crafts.
One of the other regular activities the team contributes to is the Mangrove Forest Planting Project in Baan Nam Kem, which was set up by local fishermen following the 2004 tsunami. Here, guests can help plant new trees and restore the vital mangrove ecosystem which was damaged by the disaster.
