GAPS Australia is recruiting volunteers!

Volunteer with GAPS

GAPS is an organisation which seeks to facilitate sustainable development in the areas of education, medical development and community development by establishing partnerships across the developed and developing world.

We are recruiting general team members to work in teams in Australia on exciting and involved projects in Kenya working to improve the lives of people within communities in need.

There's something for everyone, no matter what your interest or skills are. It doesn't matter whether you're a development guru or high-powered problem solver and team leader or whether you've never done anything like it before and just want to do whatever you can to help. It's a fantastic opportunity to get involved and do something stimulating but also to do something worthwhile.
