Help and be a volunteer in Vietnam in a wildlife heaven that harbours over 12,000 plant and 7,000 animal species, many of them found nowhere else on earth. We will take you to our project Wildlife Rescue Station, the first and only wildlife hospital and holding facility in Southern Vietnam.

Located nearby tropical rubber tree forests and the famous Cu Chi tunnels, the station is home to many species including gibbons, primates, bears, reptiles, monitor lizards, carnivores, water dragons, pythons and a wide range of turtles. Staff are trying their best to provide accommodation and care for wildlife rescued from illegal traders. After recovering, the animals healthy enough are released back into their natural habitat.

The Centre is the first of its kind in southern Vietnam. It is located 2 hours outside Ho Chi Minh City (Saigon) close to the popular tourist destination known as the Ben Dinh tunnels, which formed a part of the infamous Iron Triangle during the days of the Vietnam War. The local town where the project is situated, is called An Nhon Tay, located in the district of Tu Duon. An Nhon Tay iteslf is a small rural yet traditional town, with a few local stores and markets serving as basic amenities for the local inhabitants. The closest main city to the project location is Thu Dau Mot located on the left bank of the Saigon River, within the province of Binh Duong. The town is known locally for its ceramic porcelain and rattan and bamboo weaving. There are many points of local interest should you head here for the weekend. These include the Binh Duong Goddess Temple, the Dai Nam World Tourism Park, the Hoi Khanh Pagoda, the Madame Temple and the Porcelain Production Village.
