PERU
Volunteer to help Abandoned Children
Casa Niños

We are a group of international and Peruvian volunteers who
are working together to help the poorest children. International
volunteers live in nice accommodation in the City Centres.
During the week we go out to where the poor children live, we
find those who are too poor or abandoned to go to school and
we help them. We feed, clothe, medicate and most of all teach
them - we either get them into regular schools at our expense,
or else we teach them ourselves in our little neighborhood
schools.

We give free Spanish lessons to our volunteers, and in the
evenings they teach English to Peruvians. Week ends
volunteers are free to travel, socialize or just relax. We invite
you to join our happy team of volunteers.

they never had the chance to study the language or methods
of teaching a foreign language.

If you are interested in small group English teaching or have
experience with teaching English, you could help a lot of
children getting a better education by sharing your skills for a
while.

Suitable for volunteers of all ages. Retired professionals
welcome.

We also welcome handicapped volunteers. Please contact us
to check the possibilities and understand that Thailand is not
wheelchair friendly and unfortunately accessible

Thai-Eperience.org is a Thai NGO based in north-eastern
Thailand. Coming from different cultural backgrounds,
tolerance and curiosity for different frames of reference are our
strength. We are not bound to any religion, ideology or political

persons and village women.

Volunteers will get valuable cross cultural experience and go

INDIA & NEPAL
Teaching in poor Himalayan communities
Himalayan Education Lifeline Programme (HELP)

HELP offers opportunities for teachers and child carers in
schools and orphanages in India and Nepal.

While teaching experience is desirable, we will consider
anyone with skills that orphanages and schools can make use
of. The most important skill is the ability to relate to and
communicate skills to children.

The qualities our volunteers need to benefit from the
experience and to make a useful contribution to their project
are: resilience and adaptability, an open mind and an interest
in other cultures, good mental and physical health, and tact
and diplomacy.

Because these opportunities are best suited to mature people,
our volunteers are likely to be (but not exclusively) from one of
the following categories:

* working people taking a career break.
* retired people who are not yet ready to put their feet up!
* graduates wanting to have an adventure before starting their
careers.
* students aged at least 20.

If you are interested, read all about volunteering with HELP on

Volunteer Teaching Placements
The Karen Hilltribes Trust

The Karen Hilltribes Trust (KHT) is a small charity that works
with the Karen people to develop their own educational, social
and economic infrastructure. The charity runs teaching
placements to northwest Thailand.

Volunteers live and work within the Karen tribes, teaching in
local secondary and primary schools alongside qualified
teachers. There are also opportunities to assist with the
installation of clean water systems in remote Karen villages.

Placements are available for varying duration, with six-month
placements running from January 2006. Volunteers are
required to fundraise the costs of their placement, which
includes board and admin costs. £1500 is required for a 6
month placement.

MADAGASCAR
Voluntary Research Assistant
ReefDoctor.Org

ReefDoctor is a small coral reef research, education and
conservation organisation based in Ifaty, a small fishing village
on the Bay of Ranobe, 27km north of the main provincial town
of Toliara in SW Madagascar.

ReefDoctor is primarily a research organisation; Research
involves underwater fish, invertebrate and substrate surveys
for coral reef health, reef enhancement experiments (fish
aggregation devices - FADs- and small artificial reef
experiments), fisheries assessments, socioeconomic studies,
coral recruitment experiments and baseline surveys for
community marine protected area (MPA) placement. We also
raise awareness in local communities on coral reef health
issues, MPAs, marine ecology, and conservation practices.

Volunteer research assistants become part of a small scientific
team, and fulfil a vital role in our work programme. Due to our
small size we strive to maintain a volunteer research assistant
to staff ratio of between 1:1 and 1:2, so volunteers make a
large contribution to the success of our projects.

GRENADA
Volunteer in Grenada with Youth Challenge International
Youth Challenge International

Grenada is known as the spice island of the Caribbean thanks
to its steep mountain forests full of nutmeg and cinnamon.
Sadly the spice forests were toppled when Hurricane Ivan
struck in September 2004, destroying houses, schools and
hospitals. The island is slowly rebuilding and preparing itself
for more hurricanes to come.

YCI has partnered with a number of local agencies to work on
the remote islands of Carriacou and Petit Martinique on the
following projects:
Rebuilding community hurricane shelters
Hurricane and Disaster Preparedness Planning
Youth Development and Social Recovery

While on the project you may be able to enjoy some down time
learning about Caribbean culture and customs. Although the
spice forests were destroyed, it is still possible to eat the
traditional dishes and see the rainforests in the mountains.

Program Dates:
October 13 to December 8: 8 weeks
February 11 to April 7: 8 weeks
July 7 to August 11: 5 weeks

Program Fee:
5-weeks: $2,700 + Airfare

done yet in rural communities in education, health, gender and
environmental protection.

Internacional on the following projects:
Aqueduct building
National park infrastructure
Women and Youth Action Conferences

YSE

Set up in 1991 by two very experienced organisers of ski
holidays, Fiona Easdale and John Yates-Smith, YSE have 24
chalets in Val d'Isère.

RESORTS:

Val d'Isere.

JOBS:

* Chalet Staff
* Chalet Assistant

QUALIFICATIONS & SKILLS REQUIRED:

You must be a British passport holder and be over the age of
21. Applicants under 21 years old need to show exceptional
qualities to be considered. All applicants must be British
passport holders with a valid UK National insurance number.

YSE say "all of our staff come to Val d'Isère because they want
to ski almost every day for five months, on some of the best
slopes in the world. You don't have to be a good skier - it
doesn't even matter if you've never tried skiing at all - but you
have to be a fairly sporty, outdoors sort of person to
contemplate a season in the Alps."

The requirements for each position are as follows:

Chalet Staff
This position consists of cooking, cleaning and looking after
guests. Anyone applying must be ready and able to excel in all
three. When considering applicants YSE take particular note of
qualifications and/or experience in cooking and cleaning,
references from previous employers, and especially a cheerful,
friendly and sensible personality. YSE study your menus
carefully and suggest you make the best meals you can
actually cook (regardless of budget).

Chalet Assistant
YSE also employ a number of Chalet Assistants who work
alongside Chalet Staff cleaning the chalet, setting and clearing
the table, serving meals, washing up, etc. Some Chalet
Assistants turn out to be sufficiently competent cooks to run
their own chalet, but most spend the winter cleaning and
serving. It is hard, repetitive work, but there's a great team
spirit, and many people are delighted not to have to use their
brains too much for a few months! Again, when considering
applicants YSE will take particular note of experience in
cleaning and waitressing, references from previous employers,
and especially a cheerful, friendly and sensible personality.

Staff will need to be available from the end of November to the
beginning of May.

PACKAGE:

While working for YSE you are paid a monthly wage in arrears
in Britain, provided with board and lodging, a lift pass, certain
items of uniform clothing and the use of skis, boots and poles.
Transportation is provided to the resort at the end of
November and back to Britain in early May.

FURTHER INFORMATION:

Some Chalet Staff work in pairs. If there is someone you want
to work with, send your applications together.

To apply fill in an online application form and they will send
you their full recruitment pack.
