Directors for our center in Thailand needed

Looking for a volunteer management opportunity? The International Humanity
Foundation needs your expertise and vigour to direct our children’s home!
The International Humanity Foundation (IHF) is seeking forward-thinking, dynamic graduates
to contribute to our children’s home in Thailand. IHF has grown over the past 25 years under
the visionary leadership of Carol Sasaki (CEO) and the dedication of thousands of volunteers
from around the world.
IHF is distinct from other NGOs in this field as we practice the ‘Pass it on’ ethos in
marginalized regions. We offer the privilege of education to those who without our
organization could not reach it. IHF has no central headquarters, as each center is a product
of its environment and follows the cultural code and norms of its host country. IHF volunteers
teach English, computer and math classes as well as maintaining relationships with local staff
and the local population at every centre.
In addition to teaching, our organization’s volunteers engage in:
? Public relations
? Fundraising
? Legal
? Finance
? Project experts (i.e., Peace farm and food relief initiatives)
? Media
At the centers, directors divide their time between teaching and nurturing the children and
working on international tasks. All directors manage one or more of our international task
teams such as university relations, photography, fundraising and media. Special projects
constantly arise and include moving food during famine feeds to monitoring children during
breaks. Our center directors have a lot of say in what they do and must possess excellent time
management skills.
Those who are secure without the comforts of home gain the most from this valuable
opportunity. Although we are mainly seeking those with the above expertise, IHF is willing to
consider those with transferrable skills if you can demonstrate them during our application
process. Fluency in English, both written and spoken is essential. Those interested in
volunteering at an IHF centre are required to complete a level of pre-trip duties in order to
gain an understanding of how grassroots organizations function.
Salary / Pay: IHF is a voluntary organization in the greatest sense of the term. Nobody is paid
a wage from top to bottom. Directors must commit to serve at least a year at the center.
Basic accommodation and food is provided by by IHF.
