WORKCAMPS IN UGANDA
In 2007 OIKOS organises in collaboration with THIVS (Touch-Humanity International Voluntary Services), a local non-profit organisation, several workcamps in Kenya
Touch-Humanity International Voluntary Services (THIVS) is a Kenyan-based non-profit organization founded in October 2001 with a mission to alleviate human suffering socially, psychologically and economically through provision of life-support mechanism by promoting humanitarian values. The idea is to promote volunteering as a powerful force for change, both for those who volunteer and for the wider community. This is done through both work camps and development projects activitiesThe camps are open to young people over 16 coming from all over the world and have an average duration of 3 weeks.
The fee of participation (including the annual membership-card of OIKOS) is 80,00 Euro and has to be paid when applying for a camp.
The camp-fee (including board and lodging) is 250,00 Euro and has to be paid to the camp-coordinator on arrival in Uganda.Volunteers will work 5 days a week from 8.30 a.m. - 1 p.m., and are free on week-ends.
Preferably volunteers should arrive 2 days before the beginning of the camp.
