| Volunteer
Programme |
|
To
volunteer is to contribute one’s time, skills
and ideas to fulfill a social need without
expecting corresponding financial reward.
Ufadhili’s Volunteer programme is guided by the
belief that human beings are the most valuable,
useful and abundant resource. People, and the
ideas they generate are the key that unlocks the
potential in all other existing resources.

When
people identify with a cause, they will commit
their time, energy and expertise in support of
what they believe in. |

People
have the ability to influence and shape opinions.
They are therefore able to rally the belief and
support of others. |
