  Beschreibung

  We are a community-run school providing secondary education and vocational skills training to orphans and other children from disadvantaged backgrounds,with an outreach program in the communinites. We.We have over 400 students, both girls and boys, aged between 14 and 20.
  
  We are located in a village, Mukungwe sub county in Masaka District, 85 miles (135 km) south west of the Ugandan capital Kampala.
  
  The school is run on Christian principles, and accepts children regardless of their religion, tribe, ethnicity or political background. Some students come from the nearby slums, while others come from the rural areas, with a few from as far away as Tanzania and Rwanda. There is a mixture of day and boarding students due to the long distance that some have to travel to reach the school.

  Warum lässt workaway.info Einträge von Gastgebern zu, die einen finanziellen Beitrag verlangen?

  In Entwicklungsländern (wo die meisten Gastgeber gemeinnützige Arbeit oder Gemeinschaftsentwicklungsarbeit anbieten) verlangen einige unser Gastgeber einen kleinen Beitrag, um die Gastfamilie oder NGO zu unterstützen (meist handelt es sich um weniger als 5 USD pro Tag). Workaway lässt diese Art von Einträgen dann zu, wenn die Spende direkt an die Familie oder die NGO geht und nur dazu dient, die Kosten des Aufenthalts des Volunteers abzudecken. (Dies wird im Eintrag des Gastgebers deutlich angegeben).
  Wir lassen keinerlei Inserate von Agenturen, „Vermittlern“ oder Projekten zu, bei denen wir das Gefühl haben, dass sie Profit aus dem Aufenthalt von Volunteeren schlagen wollen.
