UCD Volunteers Overseas is an Irish charity established in 2003 and has since then been working on education, healthcare and construction projects in India, Haiti, Nicaragua, Tanzania and Uganda. This summer, 138 student volunteers from UCD will be returning to these countries to continue working on small-scale development projects with local communities.
The five main project areas include:
- English language classes in primary schools
- Summer camp activities including sports, arts and crafts, music and dance workshops
- Youth clubs and health education workshops
- Physiotherapy project for children with disabilities
- Refurbishment of care homes and education centres
Each volunteer is asked to raise €2,600 to participate in the UCDVO projects. These funds support the volunteer to carry out the above tasks for one month and also cover the costs of project resources such as physiotherapy equipment, educational supplies, summer camp equipment, and refurbishment costs.
