The Kanga Project does not have any paid staff and relies entirely on volunteers at home.
You may have some very special skills we could use and we list below some of our current requirements. Volunteering is a good way to gain experience, help make a difference and show the world that you do wear your heart on your sleeve.
We are looking for:
A web administrator and Publicity Officer
A Trusts & Foundations Fundraiser
A Volunteers in Tanzania Administrator
A Public Relations Officer
A UK volunteers team leader
Each role is explained in the attached document. Could you be one of these key persons?
Our more adventurous volunteers spend time in Tanzania and help with teaching English, conducting community research projects, building hostels and assisting with program planning, implementation and evaluation. Check our latest volunteer's blog at http://janey-singida.blogspot.com to see if you could be one of these amazing people.
We welcome volunteers with specific skills in agriculture, setting up small businesses, health promotion and or experience in sustainable energy and water harnessing in the context of resource-poor communities.
Could this be you? Then get in touch.
Testimony from Jane Davis – volunteer Sept and October 2008
In Sept and October 2008 I helped facilitate a project run by RWDA with funding from The Kanga Project. While I was there, I realized for the first time (I thought I knew before) the challenges the people and especially the women of
I would recommend this experience to anyone with a genuine desire to use their skills to better someone else’s life. You don’t need any qualifications or special past experience but what you do need is a fair swag of patience, persistence, motivation and openness.
Many of the days I spent in the village were frustrating and there were many things I struggled to understand but I always felt I was of use to others. I learnt so much about another culture and how I could be part of it. I always felt that it was worthwhile me being there.
Thank you everyone for your support and the opportunity to be involved in this project. It is you who keep this going and your time and effort which will make a big difference to the people of the Singida region. It's nice to feel part of such a team.
