Organization
Rules and Regulations
Even though volunteers come with different characters, manners, behavours, education, religions and different backgrounds everyone must abide by the same rules and regulations. We do not have a different set of rules for different volunteers. We hereby ask that every single volunteer follows the rules and regulations of the organization so that we all can work hand in hand in harmony for the less fortunate and underprivileged human beings in this part of the world.
You will be asked to leave if you are out of our control or a fake even if you mean a million dollars to us. High educations and experiences are not important to us. We want genuine, broad-minded, open, observant, active, thoughtful, teachable and selfless volunteers who like to give their skills, energy, time, services and possible donations to the less fortunate, underprivileged and marginalized human beings in this part of the world. We do this because we live only once in this world.
Things you should know as a volunteer:
(1) Don't get up late in the morning.
(2) Don't go to breakfast without washing your face and brushing your teeth. It is disrespectful to others who will eat with you.
(3) While eating don't fill up your plate with heaps of food. It means you are selfish. Take one or two spoonful of the dishes you
like and then you repeat it when you need more.
(4) While eating don't blow your nose, it is very rude and disgusting. All the people around you will run away if you do that.
(5) Don't pass gas when people are around you. It is very very rude and disgusting. In Asia we never do that.
(6) Please don't kiss your lover when people are around you. The people around you will feel very shy seeing you kiss your
lover and they will think you were born without the nerve responsible for feeling shy.
(7) Always wear a skirt, pants or shorts that cover your knees.
(8) Please take a shower every single day.
(9) Please wash your feet before you go to bed.
(10) Take off your shoes, sandals or flip flops before you enter the house.
(11) Smoking or drinking during work is not permitted.
Rules and regulations of the Organization for each volunteer
1. I agree and acknowledge the rules and regulations of the organization.
2. I agree to raise funds or pay to volunteer as follow.
Let's assume but it is true that as a volunteer your weekly expense for food and loding in this country is 180 US$. The deal here is that you should raise funds or collect donations three times more than your weekly expense, 180 US$. If you can collect donations 3 times more than your weekly expense as a volunteer, you will then volunteer for free. You don't need to spend a penny for your food and lodging as a volunteer. The organization will pay for you. But if you collect donations just 2 times more than your weekly expense you will have to pay half for your weekly expense. Check it out below.
