Volunteers are needed to assist in clean up, repair, and rebuilding. Attendees will find out about future teams and where potential new teams can go, and the Mozambique and Russia teams for Initiatives of Hope. Patrick Matskenyeri of Africa University will lead the music. Attendance at the training event does not obligate one to become a team leader. All aspects of team leadership will be covered including recruiting, administration, cross-cultural adaptation, travel arrangements, even suggestions on what to pack.
Registration is required.
