Are you an individual, family or group planning on a volunteer travel, holiday or adventure abroad in Africa,
then HB Volunteer Uganda is the answer,
We offer opportunities in programs such as;
Education Program:
There are many primary & Secondary schools in Uganda that educate, house and feed needy children and orphans.
You can teach primary classes, including academic subjects and life skills, and organize sport and art
activities for the children. You are the outside world to these kids. Schools have a basic curriculum, but youÂ’ll
be planning your own lessons daily. Know that traditional education in Uganda is based on memorization and
passing exams. While there is a language barrier, by volunteering you can introduce creative writing, drawing,
debate, and life skills into the classroom.
Community Empowerment Program:
This is a hands dirty type of program. Under this program, you can take part in construction and building
projects in the rural/urban communities, working along side with unskilled youth/local people. Working on projects
like ,construction of schools,orphanages, farming, volunteer centers, borehole building and also renovation
work. You do not require experience it's just the enthusiasm of helping others.
Youth work & Mentoring:
If youÂ’re into something a little less structured that includes camping out and mentoring youth around the
campfire, perhaps youÂ’d like to work with a youth group. We have projects that promote the voluntary
spirit in Uganda. You would work alongside Ugandan volunteers (youth aged 17 – 27) in programs directly
benefiting local communities all over Uganda.
Expect to take part in an ever changing schedule made up of public speaking and mentoring youth and youth
leaders fighting against HIV/AIDS,AIDS care, counseling, public health/hygiene,condom use/distribution, and
creativity workshops promoting small business generation, the importance of basic education, womenÂ’s rights and
empowerment. Bring camping gear to get the most of this program.
Health Care Program:
HB Volunteer Uganda, also partners with local Health Clinics and local community projects lacking adequate
health services and health awareness. Our health program areas include family planning, HIV/AIDS,sexual &
reproductive health, and community health (alleviation of malaria,HIV/AIDs and other diseases) we the aim to build the
aptitude of these communities to improve sanitation and hygiene and promoting health education among the local
people.
Child Care Program:
In Uganda , there are thousands of children who are orphaned or neglected, and need love, care and
attention.Care placements are ways to volunteer together as a family.Spend sometime working in an orphanage or care home,
and be a hero to a child's life. By Working with children in orphanages, you would be helping the kids to learn
life-skills,engaging them in activities such as sports & games or Music & arts. You'll likely get involved in
the day to day running of an orphanage by feeding, washing and dressing the children.
