Volunteer Accommodation


 

COAT is now able to provide comfortable, modern accommodation for volunteers who come on a short / long term basis to serve both the children in our care and the staff who work for us. With EW3 and 4 moving to the new orphanage we have been able to equip some of the rooms to use for our long term and short term volunteers. The pictures above show both volunteer suites. When we have many volunteers visiting at the same time we also have accommodation in EW2, EW5 and EW6. In order to cover our costs, volunteers staying for less than one month, 'short-term volunteers', are expected to contribute to the costs that we incure. Therefore we ask short-term volunteers to contribute $20 Aud / £13 per night for the duration of their stay. If this makes it difficult for you to volunteer with us then do speak to the management committee member dealing with your application and we can come to an agreement as what you should pay. For those staying more than one month but less than three months an agree contribution will be decided upon with you in advance. For those staying for the long-term, i.e. more than three months, you will not be expected to contribute towards your living costs as you are giving us a significant amount of your time and experience. If you have any questions regarding accommodation during your stay please do not hesitate to contact us.
