IDV is working to rebuild homes and other key infrastructure in Tacloban following the devastating impacts of Typhoon Haiyan.
At the moment we're rebuilding a school and 150 permanent homes, and we urgently need both short and long-term volunteers with construction expertise to help us make these projects a success.
In addition to general volunteers, we also need at least one Construction Project Manager who will help develop and lead projects. To be successful in this role you will need relevant professional skills and be capable of leading all parts of the construction process.
Working overseas as an IDV project manager is a fantastic way to gain experience if you are interested in a humanitarian career. Many of our past volunteers are now employed by larger charities and NGOs.
Our project managers receive free accomdoation, food, a phone allowance, and have their expenses paid. Further benifits - including a modes stipend - may be available.

Mission Statement
Build an efficient, open, thriving marketplace that connects people who have community and world-changing ideas with people who can support them.
Description
GlobalGiving was founded by two former World Bank executives who decided to use the Internet to create a highly efficient marketplace. The GlobalGiving platform enables more funding to reach projects throughout the globe, and, at the same time, provides a more transparent, engaging way for donors to give.
Because we enable donors to give directly to projects, they know exactly where their money is going. Donors can see progress updates on most projects as funding is received and goals are met.
Donations made through GlobalGiving are higher impact because:
- Money is going directly to a well-defined project versus supporting general operating expenses
- Projects on globalgiving.com have exposure to thousands of donors, enabling us to aggregate multiple sources of funding for each project
- Many projects on globalgiving.com are located in the developing world where a little money goes a long way
