VOLUNTEERS

Thanks to your voluntary experience with Italia Uganda you will have the chance to come into contact with a world from which there is much to learn, but we are certain that your contribution will teach us a lot and help us to improve. We are happy to welcome you to our large community, to share memorable moments with you and to leave you with unforgettable memories.

With our international volunteering you will have the chance to develop soft skills that are highly sought-after in the workplace, such as teamwork, problem solving, adaptability, communication skills and relationship building. The meeting of two different cultures is always an opportunity for personal and professional growth and we are certain that this experience will enrich your range of aptitudes.

WHERE WILL YOU GO?

Our mission house is located in Luzira, a district in the outskirts of Kampala, Uganda’s capital city.

WHAT WILL YOU DO?

On the basis of your education, skills and inclinations, you can focus on one of our three action areas, bringing new value to our projects. In fact, your arrival will be an opportunity for the children and families of Uganda to meet someone that has come specifically to stay with them, willingly dedicating their time, their energy, their skills and, above all, their personal sensitivity to these people. At the same time you will bring so much back with you: you will work alongside Ugandan professionals, you will discover amazing places and you will meet people that will stay in your heart forever.

Want to become a volunteer?

We can’t wait to meet you and to accompany you on this journey…if you have any questions or doubts don’t hesitate to get in touch!
