March 30-April 11
May 29-June 10 and September 11-23
These dates offer a variety of experiences. As the Ecokids will be in school, your time with them will be more limited….BUT you will be able to:
* join them at their school to participate with classes and share your expertise on… your culture, your country, your state…your choice! Your options are limitless. As most the the older children at this school (Baylor International Academy) have a good command of English, you will not be too hampered by a language barrier and can enjoy teaching…and learning from them!* help at the very poor government school near the EcoHome to participate in their classroom activities. This is a much different…and very rewarding experience!* hike to Namo Buddha Monastery to meet young monks and help them with their English.
* If needed, you can help out at the nearby Medical Clinic.Again, this program will be guided by your escort from Mission Himalaya to optimize your total experience!To reserve your space for May 29 – June 10, $100 deposit Click HerePay balance of $960 or Returning volunteers discount price $880 Click HereTo reserve your space for September 11-23, $100 deposit Click HerePay balance of $960 or Returning volunteers discount price $880 Click Here
