I am changing my travel ways this time round, instead of just backpacking
around the countries taking it all in, I would like to volunteer for
something --time approx. 2weeks in Feb.
If anyone knows of any reputable organizations please let me know. I'm
fluent in English and can get by in French.

Might I suggest you do not mention this to the immigration officials
at the border. IT would fall under working without a permit and could
mean you will be volunteering at the local prison for a few years.

Nonsense, especially the way he is doing it by going through local
officials or under the auspices of non-governmental or religious organizations
with local programs.
