Volunteer Programs in Morocco

Morocco is an Islamic country influenced by westernization due to its close proximity to Europe. A nation full of ancient cities, mixed with skyscrapers, deserts, and coastlines. From sipping a Moroccan mint tea in the Medina, to seeing a snake charmer perform in the streets, there are endless opportunities for those who volunteer in Morocco to experience the local culture. Though more developed than other African countries, Morocco is still working to improve women’s rights, help orphaned children, and develop local communities, so there are plenty of opportunities for volunteer work in Morocco.

Working with Children and Youth in Morocco

Volunteers work with Moroccan youth, teaching and assisting them to learn crucial life skills that are often taken for granted. For example, they may give basic language lessons, help with computer skills and mathematics, and organize education and recreational activities such as music, theater, arts and crafts, and outdoor games. Volunteers supply critical support to teachers, who are often greatly under-resourced. The host school doesn't have enough staff, making extra pairs of hands and knowledge greatly appreciated. On the other hand, students benefit from the support and attention they receive from international participants. Although some experience working with children is preferred, a responsible, enthusiastic, and compassionate attitude goes a long way. Working with children in Morocco can be challenging, but a basic understanding of French or Arabic will make this placement a rewarding experience for all involved.

A Guide to Volunteering Abroad in Morocco

Locations

Rabat, the capital of Morocco, is the country’s second largest city. Located in northwest Morocco on the Atlantic coast, there are many things to see and explore in Rabat. The Medina, or “old city”, has great shopping and is a perfect place to haggle with shopkeepers. Other sites of interest include the Kasbah of the Udayas, the Hassan Tower, and the Royal Mausoleum. Popular volunteer placements in Rabat include teaching English, childcare, working in orphanages, and helping with women’s empowerment projects.

Tangier is a city on the northern tip of Morocco, just a short ferry ride away from Spain. Many tourists take a day trip to Tangier from Tarifa or Algeciras, Spain. Tangier may be extremely close to Europe, but its Islamic culture is evident in the Old Medina, the Kasbah, and the historical Sultan’s palace. Those who volunteer in Tarifa can participate in placements related to healthcare, childcare, and teaching English.

The largest city in Morocco, Casablanca, is one of the most important industrial and economic centers in Africa. Located on Morocco’s Atlantic coast, Casablanca has a more cosmopolitan feel when compared to Rabat and Tangier, with modern architecture and a smaller ancient Medina. Education and teaching English are popular among volunteers in Casablanca

A life changing experience

December 13, 2025by: Irene Neal - CanadaProgram: Worlds #1 Volunteer Programs. 40+ Countries from $20/day!

I was looking for an escape from my comfortable lifestyle at home in Canada. I wanted to share my passion helping others less fortunate than myself. I searched international volunteering programs, have volunteered in four countries in 2025, and can truly say these experiences have changed my life. How do you feel when an elderly person in a old people's home in Zambia begs you to stay with them and share stories and smiles? What happens to you when the school children in Ghana hug you so tight you lose your breath? What overtakes your mind when you introduce positive ideas to women in an impoverished village in Sri Lanka, and see them take possession of new personal empowerment? Let me tell you. It grabs you by the heart and nourishes your soul. It makes you want to come back again and again. Which is exactly what I plan to do in 2026.
