Volunteer
Opportunity description
The
women of Tanzania are hard working, yet make up a disproportionately large
segment of the poor. Most strive against poverty with little or no support or
guidance. In growing numbers, they are now organizing themselves into different
groups to help to improve the living standards of their families. Groups have
been formed for business start up guidance, milk processing, pottery
production, vegetable growing and several other enterprises. These women face
many challenges: how to market their products, understanding micro-finance and
loan application procedures, and more. Vol
unteers are welcome to assist with
training and offer any useful skills.
Housing:
Participants stay in a compound house with other volunteers and members of a
Tanzanian family
