RWANDA SOUTH AFRICA BOLIVIA BANGLADESH / Tearfund
Tearfund ICS is a 10 week, government-funded volunteer overseas placement that provides the opportunity to work alongside local volunteers to make a difference in communities in some of the poorest places in the world.
We currently send teams to Bolivia, Rwanda, Bangladesh and South Africa. You will travel in small groups with the opportunity to volunteer on a range of projects from teaching, creative arts, mentoring children/teenagers that live on the streets, construction, sports coaching and agricultural work.
Placements depart four times a year in Spring, Summer, Autumn and Winter.
We have ‘Volunteer’ places for those who are 18-25 and ‘Leader’ places for those who are 23 and over with no upper age bracket. Please note for leaders applying to volunteer in Bolivia, Spanish is an advantage.
The great thing about the ICS placement is that you don’t need any particular skills, qualifications or cash. All you need is an ambition to make a difference!
You will be provided with lots of support pre, during and post placement which includes: a three day orientation pre placement, fundraising support and a debrief when you return to the UK to support you to do a minimum of one action to raise awareness about your experience overseas.
Please note funding for this opportunity ends in May 2015
