International Humanity Foundation: helping the poorest kids
Your enthusiasm for education will be invaluable to our children and to our organization by encouraging them to constantly strive for a better future. IHF volunteers teach English, computer and math classes as well as maintaining relationships with local staff and the local population at every centre. In addition to teaching, our organization’s volunteers engage in: · Public relations · Fundraising · Legal · Finance · Project experts (i.e., Peace farm and food relief initiatives) · Media At the centers Interns divide their time between teaching and nurturing the children and working on international tasks. All volunteers participate on one or more of our international task teams such as university relations, media and fundraising. Before your arrival at the center, you must complete pre-trip tasks online to demonstrate your work ethic. Once at the center, IHF requires its interns to work eight hours a day on at-center and international tasks, six days a week. There is time to sightsee and tour the nation, but work is always the first priority. Our internship program very much follows our mission of "educating the educated about the poor'. Through bringing university students to study at our centers for intensive learning experiences this allows students to go beyond the superficial in learning about the realities of poverty. This provides endless opportunities to learn intimately about the international issues of education, human rights, abuse and poverty as well as local issues such as tribal rights, land ownership, citizen status and tribal conflicts.
