Mission Statement
Launched in 2009, Volunteer in Zimbabwe Trust is the only Zimbabwean organisation working in Zimbabwe to promote and encourage volunteerism in Zimbabwe by both locals and internationals. Our primary focus is on encouraging people in developed countries to volunteer their time and influence with the minimal disruption to their lives to do things that are immensely beneficial to the needy in Zimbabwe particularly school children
Description
Our basic belief is that volunteering is about giving your time to do something useful, without financial reward and yet very fulfilling. Volunteering is not necessarily about coming to spend some time in Zimbabwe and working in particular communities. Our greater numbers of volunteers are those people who are not able to travel, who use their time, influence and resources as volunteers in the communities they live and work to do simple activities that have a life changing impact on beneficiaries here in Zimbabwe. Simple acts like collecting sanitary pads for use by poor girls or sending a used computer rather than throwing it away can make such a huge difference to school children. We strive to connect volunteers with communities in need of service. Whether one is coming to Zimbabwe or not, the opportunities to volunteer are endless and very fulfilling.
