A demonstrated interest in grassroots international development is required; previous experience in this setting (volunteering, fieldwork, or prior work experience) preferred.

Effective communication skills and the ability to work with stakeholders from a variety of cultures and backgrounds.

What You’ll Gain
-
Real, hands-on project management and delivery experience.
-
Exposure to international development at a grassroots level, with concrete opportunities to deliver meaningful work.
-
A rich cultural experience and the opportunity to immerse yourself in semi-rural communities in Western Kenya.
-
Volunteers benefit from one week’s holiday in the middle of the programme, allowing the opportunity to explore the rest of the country (previous volunteers have travelled to Mombasa, Nairobi and the Maasai Mara).

Opportunity to work with a team of passionate, like-minded individuals and build a strong professional network within the charity and our wider community.

Charity Shop Volunteers are involved in a wide range of roles and day-to-day activities that support the running of each shop and even a few hours a week will make a difference.
On the shop floor you could be involved with providing excellent customer service, processing transactions on the tills, replenishing stock and putting up eye-catching displays to entice customers in.
Behind the scenes, volunteers get involved with sorting through donations to find those hidden gems and preparing goods for sale by sorting, steaming and pricing
We provide training, so you don’t need experience – and we reimburse travel expenses so you won’t be out of pocket.
We’re looking for people who are 18 years of age or over that enjoy working as part of a team and making a difference.
