The Holt Ilsan Center staff appreciates all of those who gave generously of themselves as volunteers in 2000, and wishes to express a need for more volunteers this year. Those interested should be able to serve in Korea for one to three months.
Volunteers typically assist individuals of all ages at the disabled resident facility.
Winter season positions are hardest to fill. This program offers a chance to serve those in need and learn about Korea. The Holt Korea Christmas Team, with participants from New Jersey, Vermont, Illinois, and Oregon, generously hosted Christmas parties and gave gifts to children, foster mothers, all the residents of the Ilsan Center, and Junjoo Baby Home. In addition, team members raised money to provide a new washer and dryer for the Salvation Army Seoul Women's Home as well as funds to provide a computer for the children at the Holt Mapo Daycare Center. Participants stay at Holt's Ilsan Center and at 4-star hotels while traveling outside of Seoul.
