Our criterion for volunteering relies on the premise that you are an individual interested in creating change. All volunteers have the passion and curiosity to experience a life very different from their own. Applications are accepted on a rolling basis throughout the year. Due dates for each program cycle (summer, fall, winter, spring) are posted accordingly; apply as early as possible. Phone interviews will be granted for those who are being considered as potential volunteers.
Applicants are reviewed for the possible role they could play (“HIV/AIDS 101″ facilitator, dancer, etc.), ability to adjust to new environments, flexibility, ethics, willingness to learn and adapt, and motivation to help others understand HIV/AIDS. We accept 10-15 volunteers for each session. The number of volunteers in each program depends on the quality of applications we receive.
Candidates are reviewed carefully to make the most appropriate selections for each program. Please review your application carefully before submitting. International travel is not to be taken lightly. We are seeking responsible, mature, and culturally sensitive individuals who can handle the stress and adjustment needed.
