Real Journey Nepal is looking for volunteers to take film and photography which can be used in promotional activities for the charity portfolio, fundraising, and marketing. Volunteers will be involved in capturing images and film of the local people, area, lifestyle, and the activities that Real Journey Nepal has been implementing.
Volunteers get involved in working directly with the young people at the street children’s center, orphanage, and women’s center. Volunteers can share their skills with the local children by working with other volunteers to create plays, shows, and short films with the children which they thoroughly enjoy being part of! The interaction with volunteers naturally improves the children’s English.
Photographs and film are incredibly valuable since they provide a direct link between the community and supporters and help the charity to document donations and grants. Volunteers have the opportunity to contribute to our Real Journey Nepal Nepal and Real Journey Nepal charity blog and cover issues such as news updates, community development, travel, and volunteering.
Film and Photography volunteering in Nepal: What will I be doing?
Volunteers usually work five days per week for around four hours per day. Volunteers are able to get involved with childcare, sports coaching and creative arts roles within the Real Journey Nepal Project area too.
You will work with the volunteer manager in Nepal as well as independently to capture images and clips. To volunteer, you will need your own equipment and self- motivation for this volunteer placement.
Volunteers spend afternoons at the orphanage and during the day volunteer at childcare centers or schools or women’s resource centers.
Volunteers receive a Nepali language lesson in their first week in Nepal. There will usually be between 2 and 5 other Real Journey Nepal volunteers in Kathmandu at the same time as you, though there may be less or several more. You can also combine volunteer placement with our orphanage, teaching in School, construction, projects which are based in the same location
Overview
The founding principle of Volunteer Society Nepal is knowing we could get more money going to where it is needed most.
Real Journey Nepal is a locally owned and managed non-governmental, social development organization which aims to support the poorest and most vulnerable communities in Nepal. We are a small organization, with no international organizational umbrella. This means that all the volunteer fees and funding are lower than many other organizations. The fees are invested directly into Nepal. Volunteering at Real Journey Nepal is not free, as we are partly reliant on volunteers’ fees to fund our projects. We are thankful to those who have been supporting us by taking part in our programs over the years. It is these volunteers that have been enabling us to make such massive changes to the lives of hundreds of disadvantaged women and children.
