Housing
Volunteers are hosted at the home of the school headmaster
and his wife, which is about 1.5 miles from the school. There
are two double-occupancy rooms for volunteers. The rooms have
locks on the doors and the beds have mosquito nets.
In the home, there is
a shower and a flush toilet. Water pressure can be an issue, so volunteers should be prepared to bathe from a bucket in the shower when necessary.
Meals
All meals are prepared for volunteers by the Headmaster's wife. Volunteers who have special dietary needs or food allergies should
note their needs on their volunteer application so Village Volunteers
can notify the school's Headmaster in advance.
Drinking Water
Purified drinking water is provided for volunteers.
Electricity
There is electricity, however, there are frequent power cuts.
Internet Access
The nearest internet café is approximately a 20-minute walk
from the school.
Laundry
For $30 USD per month, a volunteer’s laundry (clothing and bed linens) can be done once a week. All volunteers are asked to launder their own undergarments.
