As most of you already know, I currently work for an organization that is near and dear to my heart called One Heart Bulgaria. This organization works to help orphans in Bulgaria have a better life by sending over needed supplies and sending over interns to help these little children feel loved. I work as the internship director. I help volunteers make necessary arrangements to travel and work in Bulgarian orphanages, as I did 2 years ago. You can read my blog posts from my wonderful experience here, here, here, and here
I am excited to announce that we are starting a new program within the internship program that makes it easier to volunteer in Bulgaria if you don't know the language. We are going to have "sessions" so that a group will all go over together (safety in numbers!), and you are guaranteed to have an interpreter come with you. Interested? Yes you are. Know someone who is interested? Sure you do! Email me or comment for more details!
We are currently accepting interns for the summer 2011 session. Applying now gives you PLENTY of time to acquire the funds needed for travel, and if you speak the language, possible scholarship opportunities are available to help lessen the cost. As the internship director, I will also provide ideas on how to raise money for your internship and for the children you'll be working with. Please don't hesitate to contact me!
