2019 Summer Trips
'Catch-Up' Camp Trip
This one month volunteer opportunity will focus on some of our school aged kids at SCH who need help getting caught up to grade level! Many of our kids have fallen behind in school for a variety of reasons and we want them to start the school year off on the right foot. You will spend your afternoons working 1:1 or in a small group with some of our kids from Joy or Courage. Mornings with be spent helping with lesson plans, working with some of our other in-home schools, and helping us train our local teachers to make sure they have the tools to continue to work with the kids throughout the school year. This opportunity is ideal for teachers and college students majoring in education but we welcome people with different backgrounds to apply! Cost is $600 plus airfare and passport/visa costs.
Storytelling Trip
This 2 week volunteer opportunity will be all about telling the world about SCH through photographs, videos, blogs, and other media. SCH has so many stories to tell and we need volunteers to come and help us tell our stories. If you have a good eye for photographs, have graphic design experience, are a writer, or just have a passion for social media this trip is for you! Help SCH with their sponsor updates, learn about how you can advocate for SCH once you return home, and help us create materials that we can use throughout the year in our fundraising efforts. It’s also possible for you to extend your stay for the entire month of August. Cost is $300 plus airfare and passport/visa costs.
