[VOLUNTEER] What Are You Doing Next Summer?
We are recruiting committed students to spend 10 weeks in East Africa investing time and money in one of our partner schools. Living and working in a rural community, our volunteers develop essential transferable skills whilst experiencing vibrant East African culture.
***DEADLINE 10th Nov*** For a challenging, rewarding and inspiring summer, find out more and apply at www.epafrica.org.uk
Following personal fundraising and detailed training throughout the academic year, volunteers often invest in new educational resources, small infrastructure projects and schemes to improve students’ health and welfare. Crucially, they are trusted to plan and deliver their own projects, a challenge that provides a rich and varied personal development opportunity.
Employers such as the Foreign and Commonwealth Office, Deloitte and the WHO have regularly been impressed by the autonomy and critical thinking volunteers have demonstrated through their projects. Many volunteers also continue to build experience by volunteering with the charity after the project has finished.
Flexible return dates and a holiday week during the project also provide a brilliant opportunity to explore East Africa further.
Thanks very much!
