STAND International is looking for volunteers aged 16 to 65 years who have experienced social or economic disadvantage, to travel overseas to volunteer in 2020. This could be participating in working at a camp for children and adults with disabilities. Many of these children and young adults come from difficult backgrounds, including children from families affected by HIV, alcoholism and drug abuse. Additionally, volunteers will be participating in renovating and building work may include digging foundations, mixing cement, building walls, constructing a roof, plastering or putting the finishing coat of paint on the completed building. The work is quite challenging as buildings are made and renovated using traditional methods and locally sourced materials. The construction materials & techniques are also simple to master and are ideal for sites with limited facilities. Everything is done by hand in impoverished communities to enable and improve their living and learning environment which allows volunteers to be immersed in the host community and work with the locals to ensure these projects get completed and match the needs of the people they're benefiting. Six trips are planned for 2020, 2 trips to Belarus and 4 to Romania. The age range of volunteers for Belarus is from 16- 28 years and Romania is from 16 to 65 years old allowing for a greater number of people to participate. ROMANIA trips - March, May, August and October 2020 BELARUS trips – July & September 2020 As well as short-term volunteer opportunities we have places available for mentors. Mentors provide support and assistance to volunteers while they take on the challenge of volunteering abroad as well as additional support for 3 months upon return to Scotland enabling volunteers to best utilise the experience gained. Mentor costs are covered although there is some expectation of securing some matched funding. There is an option for those who perhaps did not feel that they had the skills or experience to become mentors to join the team as a trainee mentor.
