"I
know I have made a positive impact on these
students, and by equipping them with knowledge
and life skills they can educate others and make
a difference in their communities. Education is
the beginning of ending this HIV/AIDS pandemic,
and these students will play a key role in
stopping the devastating cycle of
transmission."
-Chelsea Reighard, TZ 2006
Day Camp Volunteer
Join Us!
GSC
is looking for volunteers to help launch our
first ever HIV/AIDS Education and Awareness Day
Camp in Thailand this summer. Volunteers must be
at least 18 years of age, and willing to commit
to a minimum of four weeks of service to the
program.
Camp Mission, Dates and
Details
Camps will be held over a series
of weekends in June and July, and will be
directed at local Thai secondary students in the
Singburi province of Thailand. Designed in
conjunction with PATH (the Program fo
Appropriate Technology in Health), the camp
curriculum will focus on HIV/AIDS and sexuality
education, life skills, and EFL training. The
goal will be to provide Thai youth with the
necessary health information, life skills, and
confidence in order to make positive life
decisions. Additionally, the day camp program
will aim to train these students to become peer
educators in their own schools.
GSC
volunteers will be trained in te camp curriculum
and then work side by side with in-country
staff, local Thai teachers, peer educators, and
translators to run the camps.
If you're
interested in joining us, please contact the GSC
office in San Francisco for more details on the
program (415.788.3666x128 or thailand@globalservicecorps.org).
We
look forward to hearing from
you!
