Tired of expensive volunteer, gap-year and culture exchange programs abroad?
Then Beacon of Hope Uganda is the answer! Beacon of Hope Uganda has a number of unique and challenging volunteer, gapyear and culture exchange placements in Uganda. Whether your passion is sustainable community development or vital healthcare work, Beacon of Hope Uganda can offer you an unforgettable experience.
When you choose Beacon of Hope Uganda, you are about to discover a new culture, accomplish something unforgettable, and explore what Uganda has to offer!
Whichever program you choose you will be benefiting from Beacon of Hope Uganda extensive experience in Uganda. No particular skills are required to volunteer with us and training is given locally but if you do have particular experience in areas relevant to your program then this will enhance your contribution.
Volunteering with us could help you choose a new direction in life or develop a career path you may already be on. It might be both a personal highlight and a practical stepping stone in a gap year or, for anyone at any time, a great way to go abroad for much more than just a holiday.
Experience Ugandan lifestyle and hospitality in this opportunity for cultural exchange and a flexible program in and around the Mukono district and other parts of Uganda. You’ll be part of a continuum of volunteers contributing to the cause of Uganda people driving their communities forward in education and infrastructure.
We could not do all that we do in Uganda without the help of our interns and volunteers, who are a vital and integral part of Beacon of Hope Uganda. Want to use your skills, drive and passion to help make life better for Uganda’s orphans? We’re looking for you! –
