How does HelpStay work? Volunteer in Canada for free and you’ll get to see the country while enjoying a low-cost work-away adventure with HelpStay. HelpStay is a skills-based volunteering platform that connects travellers with hosts offering a wide range of projects around the world. The platform makes travelling meaningful and affordable by allowing helpers to exchange work for accommodation. The host opportunities featured on the site are vetted and reviewed by the HelpStay staff, helping to keep helpers safe and the community strong.

Browse opportunities: Helpers can browse profiles of different hosts by location or type of activity. They’ll see photos and information about the kind of help needed, as well as how many hours they can expect to work during their stay. If a helper finds an opportunity they’re interested in, they can send the host a message directly. The message should include some information about the helper and why they believe they would be a good fit.

Writing your message: When messaging a host, helpers should think about any relevant experience they have that would make them a good fit for the role. Openness and honesty are key on HelpStay. If a helper doesn’t have relevant experience but is willing to learn on the job, they should simply say so. Most hosts won’t expect helpers to be seasoned gardeners or experienced English teachers.
