Volunteering for College Credit
For those enrolled in university, and college study abroad or internship abroad program can be a way to not only receive credit for your volunteering, but pay for it as well.
Particularly in North America's summer months, there is a high demand for volunteers to work through the South American winter.
What better way to spend your summer off from school than volunteering for a good cause, and receiving credit for it at the same time? In addition, there are many great internship opportunities available in Eastern and Southern Africa's up-and-coming non-profits, which can give invaluable hand-on community building experience for those trying to enter the field.
The requirements of each study abroad/internship will vary greatly from university to university, and department to department. Most students will be required to log their work, and the university will require contact with your host organization to verify that you are fulfilling your duties. While summer internships are generally a great resume booster, an international internship with a non-profit is an excellent way to make you standout when applying for jobs after graduation.
