I visited this site and got me into attending the orientation last Feb 28.
Im now looking for a project I can volunteer in.
It's surprising they have may projects/activities that would fit your lifestyle/interests.

I suggest you visit this site and attend the orientation to be a member of Hands on Manila

Hello! I would also like to do volunteer work, particularly one that involves children. HOM seems like a good idea--I'll take a look at the website later.

Actually, I'd like to work at CRIBS in Marikina. Has anybody been there? Paano ba mag-volunteer doon?
:)

I was able to volunteer there during our community service in college. Just try to call them 681-5921; 647-1329 and ask if they accept volunteers.

Manahi ng manika, magpasaya ng bata!
Masaya to, last na nakasama ako, sa Kasiglahan Village kami nagconduct ng free doll making workshop.
Silipin mo muna kami online sa www.manikako.com.
Panahon mo lang ang kailangan, kami na bahala sa materials.
Tara na!

[la_galatea]

Pero in the works nga pala si website, punta ka na din sa barbingpinay.multiply.com or search mo lang manikako online at maraming links kang makikita.
Better yet, send an email to givehope@manikako.com. Pwede kang magtanong or magvolunteer para sa next adventure namin.

hi jp (and others interested)! if you're still looking for some volunteer activities, sama ka...i've organized a group that regularly tutors former street kids living in Pangarap Foundation (shelter for boys). Sundays, 1-3 pm. (It's not a formal group ha.)

PM me for those interested. Voluntary sya, so you can come whenever you're free. (However, syempre it's better if an individual can commit himself/herself to the deed.) Salamat!

Hi everyone!

I'm thinking of doing volunteer works during my days off in the hospital. Maybe once or twice a week. preferably one in or near Quezon City.. any advice on where I go to? I'm a nurse by the way.. thanks in advance..

[claudzjamer]

is it true that volunteer work doesnt usually count as experience? is it needed to be payed work to consider it as experience?? :confused:

[claudzjamer]

Try to call East Avenue Medical Center. They are open for volunteer nurses. You just need to pass a xerox copy of your prc license and board rating. Here's the number, if in case you don't have, 928-06-11 loc. 311 .. this is the local number of nursing training office. Gudluck.

[joeyboy143]

Anyone here can suggest of good organizations to do volunteer work with...specifically with environment or kids.

try haribon. dont know if they accept volunteers though. but i believe they do have activities like tree planting etc..

[deeperdigger]

Member na ako ng Project Yeso Yahoo Groups pero I haven't been to any of their tutorials. Hopefully pag may time and extra money na...

[winay_71]

^winay_71:
can you elaborate?

hi sxy shandy!
we recruit professionals na willing to share time & knowledge for free. for one to qualify as volunteer naman: at least 7 years working experience/industry exposure. ex: a CPA

tapos what we do is match a volunteer to 1 or several small businesses (that we screen & diagnose na). ang gagawin ng volunteer kc is advising. in short, business consultancy - pero voluntary ito.

ex: volunteer CPA explaining the value of accountancy & devising appropriate bookkeeping for the client.

not all volunteers though eh me gagawin agad, until matched- nasa roster lang sila. but me mga activities & trainings that are given naman for the volunteers.

hope i explained it well. let me know pag me tanong ka

[joeyboy143]

more more... maganda din sana yung volunteer jobs for retired na. my parents are. they want to be productive pa din at syempre fulfilling ito

gma7 meron silang mga volunteer activities.. try mo inquire. theres always gk and habitat for humanity. ewan ko lang kung ok pa sa parents nyo ang ganun kasi magtatayo ng bahay yun eh. hehe.. tapos haribon does tree planting etc as well..

ano ba balak nilang field kung saan sila mag volunteer?

[magiting214]

anyone from HandsOnManila?
OK ba dito?
I'm planning to attend their orientation but I'm not sure if they are the right org for me.

[Reuben_Feffer]

^^^ i've tried hands on manila, ok naman... they have a lot of volunteer programs to choose from, and the orientation was hmmm encouraging...

[CoolCucumber]

Peeps, if you're into mountainerring and at the same time would like to do so for a cause, this org has such an activity for you. There are 2 ways to help:

1. Donate P300 for the school supplies
2. Be a volunteer to personally deliver the goods.

Here is their website: http://bbbs.freehostia.com/

Let's all help! :D


:rpflag:

[magiting214]

Since you have hands-on exposure with them already, can you say that they're not particular with one's religion?
I am an atheist and this might pose a problem.
There was an org I joined and I was asked to invoke their god through prayer. It was very uncomforable.

hmmm.... i don't exactly remember if there was any prayer involved during the orientation or during the project but i'm sure even if there was one, it's not one of those over the top things... just keep silent during their prayer and don't let it bother you ;)

[pantone #000]

anyone here who's a volunteer fire fighter? :)

[sieyvi]

anyone from HandsOnManila?
OK ba dito?
I'm planning to attend their orientation but I'm not sure if they are the right org for me.
Hands on Manila is a volunteer network. They orient you to all affiliated NGO's and existing programs for each. You decide which organization you want to be involved with and you don't need to commit to a certain time of involvement with HOM nor with its partners. You just need to call HOM or the volunteer-in-charge whenever you find yourself available to join the activity.

I have been an HOM volunteer for the past 5 years and every minute spent has been worthwhile.

Be a Volunteer

One key to PNRC’s efficiency is its rich volunteer resources made up of two distinct groups - the administrative volunteers, i.e. Board of Governors and Board of Directors and the direct service volunteers.

At national level, the Board of Governors is the governing or policymaking body. In the chapters, the Board of Directors is the counterpart of the Board of Governors.

In general, these volunteer leaders are either elected or selected to the Board. They are provided the necessary orientation on all facets of Red Cross work by the Volunteer Service, thereby enhancing their effectiveness.
