Community First

Abcede Foundation work closely with the Provincial Government of Quezon in partnership with a number of local public schools and communities around the province. The volunteer may be assigned outside Lucena City when interested, capable and necessary. The volunteer should be psychologically and physically prepared to work mostly in the field and flexible to work with children and youth. Academic and or work experience in library management/teaching preschool or elementary students are the foundation's preferred volunteers. Participants may bring their local food (Snacks/drink), educational supplies and art materials and used educational books if possible to be used and distributed to local children. They may bring sports equipment too to support the sports development program in specific communities. The project is open year round and accepts volunteers anytime it is available for the three to five months program. For six months to 12 months it is open only during August and February. The host family can only accept maximum of two same sex volunteers at a time. Male volunteers will be accepted only when there is no female volunteer working in the project.
