Become
a volunteer
Each
year, the foundation welcomes 3 to 5 long-term volunteers
(1 to 2 years in duration) to participate in the programs
in Manila.
The
candidates co-operating through “Tulay ng Kabataan” must
respect the following criteria:
• The volunteer embodies a
spirit of service.
Indeed, the volunteer is there to
serve the children
of the foundation and must constantly reason on behalf of
the children. The volunteer must remain
humble
in his/her actions as he/she is only one link in the chain
of volunteers – many have come before and many will come
after.
• The volunteer participates
professionally
in the good management of the foundation. In this context,
he/she works under the responsibility and the authority of
the director of the foundation. Just as the local Filipino
employees, he/she must comply with the professional and
personal rules of the foundation. The volunteer is also
called upon to work in a spirit of mutual respect,
partnership and collaboration with the employees of the
foundation.
• Concerning the mission which will be entrusted to
him/her, the volunteer will have to apply himself/herself
in a conscientious manner and become completely committed
to realising the mission. To this end, the foundation seeks
the following profiles: medical (doctor, nurse, health
professionals etc.); professional management (accountants,
commercial managers, auditors etc.); technical (vocational
trainers, engineers).

Through
volunteering with “Tulay ng Kabataan”, many former
volunteers continue to give of themselves for the children
of Manila on their return to France. This continual
commitment is the fruit of a successful volunteering, of a
marvellous human experience, lived for these children,
thanks to these children.
