The goal of our project is to create new opportunities for the villagers and the children and therefore help to develop the island. The main focus is to develop educational grounds for children and helping around the farm during the times, when there is no school.
As there is a lot to do we are looking for people who can take the initiative, who are self-motivated and can carry out a task from start to finish. This really is a opportunity to help build something meaningful from grounds up.
You are expected to work about 1.5h to 3h a day. One day of the week will be your holidays. We want you to have a great experience while volunteering here and we’ll make sure that you won’t work too much, especially since the days here can get quite hot.
We have a list of things that need to be done and we are working on, but we welcome all kinds of new ideas and little improvements to our project.
Some of the general things you can help with are:
• Wash dishes after meals, help clean up the kitchen and main-area. We also want to set up a cleaning schedule for the volunteers
• Babysitting duties
• Prepare Lessons for the children and develop an education-plan, keeping in mind the different ages and skill-levels of the children
• Promote the project and homestay online
• General construction work are necessary. There are not a lot of building materials available, so you have to be resourceful at times
• General organization, including maintaining a google docs document with information for the volunteers
Some tasks are seasonal:
• October – May: As a volunteer you will teach English on the weekends and work around the farm during the week. That includes weeding, planting and watering the plants. Currently we are building a new part of our farm, the Sabaydee Organic Farm (banana trees, coconut trees, pineapple trees need to be planted)
• November – January: You will help harvesting rice and peanuts.
• June – September: We need volunteers to help my family predominantly with farmwork around the rice paddies (grow rice) as there's no school.
