Volunteering

Are you interested in volunteering at one of the eight Molly and Paul Child Care Foundation Schools
in Uganda?

The cost
The basic idea is that you will fund your own costs of getting to Kampala ( flight, visa, insurance, health
requirements etc) Basic accommodation is available at the schools and there is a food "kitty". Travel around
Uganda is inexpensive and can be arranged where necessary.

Here is a rough idea of the cost
Return flight to Entebbe Ł450 - Ł700 (depending on the time of year)
Visa Ł25 for 3months
Travel immunisations Ł60 -Ł120
Allowance Ł10 per day (minimum)
plus insurance

The projects
In return for your board, you will be expected to help with one of the many projects to improve the standards of
education and care of the children at these schools. This might be helping with the building programme, nursing in
the dispensary, teaching English/Arts/Crafts/Science, developing IT skills or helping on the farm project! There is
something for everybody.

Fundraising
We would encourage you to consider fundraising before your departure in order to provide some of the essentials
for the project you will be working on. How you do this is up to you.

We will be setting up an on line sponsorship procedure so that you can choose your fundraising activity and then
simply encourage your friends and family to support you by making on line donations. Alternatively, you might like
to raise some corporate sponsorship or have a tea party! Its up to you!

What else?
These are Christian schools and as such Christian ethics should be respected
Please be conscious of the term dates - if you would like to teach then it must be during Ugandan term time!
