Do you desire to work for a noble cause then that of your employer? Perhaps your personal relationship have become a little stifled and you need time out Or perhaps it's the thought of a rural lifestyle in a tranquil setting, far from away from the noise and traffic, that's so appealing. A mixture of altruistic and personal reasons motivate people to give up their family and security of their lives at home to volunteer in some of the toughest regions in the world



Be it in the remote village somewhere in Africa with no light or in the jungles of the Amazon forest, volunteering can change your life



In developing countries you will be immensely uncomfortable with the level of poverty. At times you may question the value of the work you are doing or the role multilateral organizations play in the future of developing countries. On the upside, lots of people find volunteering satisfying because it enables them to put their skills to more meaningful use than they might be able to at home.


There is also the excitement of exploring a new culture, the prospect of personal growth and the chance to make new friends. Visit our website www.volcorps.org and read about our programs and the dates.Thank you

Anyone who would like to do volunteer work in Africa should have a look at www.counterparttravels.com. It's a great organisation that places volunteers in positions in which they actually have experience and interest. It's also very low costs. All positions are in Uganda, and the local support they offer is great. Volunteers can be placed in a wide variety of positions, and for any period of time.

By the time she came home she had nothing but contempt for her symbiotic American peers. ,
