How, where and how long could interested volunteers work in our project?
(A) In our children project in Thankot:
Teaching English and help with homework.
playing games, drawing and practice daily things such as tying the shoe leases
A 4-6 weeks volunteer time would be the most suitable. You would get to know a Nepalese household. In addition there is the possibility to organise a trekking tour with Som Bahadur.
Therese Baenziger is always happy to give more information about this project.
(B) In Singla
We are also interested to take English-speaking volunteers from around the world for Singla’s school. For teaching English or spending quality time with the children from the pre-school groups.
Persons with experience in health issues could help in the health post in Singla (Himalyayatra would be responsible for this).
Volunteers can also help in Som’s apple tree garden.
Teaching and working with the women from the planned sewing project.
These are several project ideas and all of them are discussed with other organisations. For further information you can contact Som Bahadur Gurung in Nepal or Therese Baenziger in Switzerland.
