Hi guys,
If you are interested in working with very very lovely international volunteers and practice your English, we have good news of a chance for you!
HOW – Helping Orphans Worldwide is a non-profit charity committed to providing hope, health, and security to abused, abandoned, and neglected children living in the most deprived areas of the world. They are coming to Vietnam next month and FHV is very proud to be their partner here.
Here is an overview of HOW’s work at the orphanages in Vietnam:
- Feeding Orphans Worldwide: HOW addresses the nutritional needs of children living in various orphanages throughout Vietnam. HOW identifies needs, purchases food and nutritional supplements, and hand delivers supplies to ensure proper distribution of goods.
- Cu Chi Orphanage Renewal Project: HOW discovered an orphanage in a remote area of Cu Chi, Vietnam, where the children are living in desperate conditions. The ability of local staff to provide even basic needs, such as food and clean water is severely hindered due to a lack of funding and the absence of a proper training program for caregivers. HOW has begun the complex process of renewing this facility. We are developing a program that will address everything from nutrition and hygiene, to providing doctors, therapists and other trained professionals to educate caregivers in order to provide long-term sustainability.
- CHAP (Children’s Healing Arts Program): HOW is committed to enhancing the mental and emotional well-being of these children beyond the basic needs of food and hygiene. Through HOW’s CHAP program, children are able to spend one-on-one time with volunteers, allowing them to express themselves through art, music and dance.
And here are the volunteer opportunities for FHV’s members:
- We need 1 member to work as HOW Director’s assistant from September 21 – October 19. This person must have excellent english language skills and must be able to basically work as her assistant.
- We need 3 more members to work with HOW volunteers as interpreters from September 27 until October 4. It will not be for every single day, but make sure that you will be available during this period.
Any transportation costs incurred by any volunteer will be covered by HOW. HOW will also cover lunch, snacks and beverages for all the volunteers. Moreover, each volunteer will receive a HOW T-shirt and bag to signify their involvement with Team HOW.
Registration will be closed on September 8 and we will have a small interview on September 13 to make sure that you can comfortably work with HOW.
Hope to see you soon!
Sorry guys we have enough participants, see you in another campaign.
