VOLUNTEER IN HEALTH CARE

Health care volunteerCommunity health clinics and hospitals in developing countries play a critical role on the front lines of health care, yet many face a serious lack of resources and staff.  World Endeavors volunteers assist these clinics and hospitals in a variety of ways depending on their backgrounds.  Duties may include, but are not limited to: AIDS and malaria education, helping with bathing and feeding of the patients, making beds and tidying hospital rooms, working in a children's cancer hospital, interviewing patients, and shadowing nurses and doctors.  

Both current and aspiring medical and public health professionals can gain real-world experience while making a contribution to a clinic or hospital in Brazil, Ghana, Guatemala, Nepal, the Philippines or Thailand.

VOLUNTEER IN EDUCATION
 
Volunteer in Education
Looking for a way to contribute to the lives of children in another country?  Thinking about going into the field of education but don't have any experience?  Participate in one of World Endeavors' unique immersion volunteer programs and offer your skills as an educator to children in need. 

Children in many countries around the world attend schools that are lacking in resources and teachers, making it difficult for them to achieve even basic literacy.  Volunteers provide support in English classes or other subject areas, and they are also encouraged to coordinate additional activities such as games, arts and crafts, and health education.  

World Endeavors teaching volunteers are making a difference now in Brazil, Costa Rica, Ecuador, Ghana, Guatemala, India, Nepal, the Philippines, and Thailand.  Invest in the lives of young people around the world as well as your own and apply to volunteer as a teacher today!
