Volunteer Missions (various profiles)

At Friends-International, we very much welcome responsible and impactful volunteering in our programs.

Responsible volunteering is a fast-growing global concern now, with an increasing number of countries enforcing legislation to reduce harmful volunteering and voluntourism practices such as unskilled volunteers working directly with children, whether in orphanages, schools or other organizations.

We wholeheartedly agree and have actively advocated against these practices for many years now through our ChildSafe campaigns https://thinkchildsafe.org/our-campaigns/

We believe that the transfer of appropriate skills to local staff is the best kind of volunteering, and we have provided a range of Tips and tools for potential volunteers to give and get the best from their experience at our ChildSafe website – find these at this link. https://thinkchildsafe.org/volunteers/

We currently have these positions available:

• Beauty and Barber Advisor Volunteer
• Finance Volunteer
• English Teacher Volunteer

We often have volunteering positions available; however, if you wish to send an open application to hr@friends-international.org and kindly offer your skills and time, we will gladly consider it. Some of the areas where we usually have needs (remote or in person) are Communications, Marketing, Design, Research, IT, HR etc.
