We are looking for really motivated volunteers:

  • Interest in Child Care.
  • A commitment to learning and a willingness to encourage others to participate in activities.
  • Flexibility
  • Fluent in English or French.
  • Strong inter-personal skills and experience in working with a wide variety of people; cultural sensitivity, and ability to work on sensitive topics.
  • Ready to share the lifestyle of local people (simple accommodation, transport by bus or bicycle, local food).
  • High motivation and to be ready to face language and cultural differences.

The center requires volunteers with counseling and teaching skills; preferably teachers in English or French and teachers for early childhood education and nursery schooling. However, we have an open policy and applicants with other ideas to share are also welcome to apply and will be considered. Volunteers need to contribute/initiate ideas and by that would be promoting the growth of the center. This is an opportunity for the volunteers to work at a community/grassroot level in capacity building and training in self-sustainability.
