Benefits of volunteering for AOAAD’s expedition
By volunteering in Senegal with AOAAD, your time, efforts, and expertise will be greatly appreciated and your role will be important. It gives you the opportunity to observe and contribute to AOAAD’s work. You will experience the community’s culture, language, and social practices while working with volunteers from all backgrounds, races and religions. As a volunteer and team member, you will assess needs and help build strong communities by sharing your experience. You will bring Hope for those who live without it- children, orphaned babies, and women.  While abroad, you will provide new benefits and services for poor people living in the countries where you work by improving the social and physical environment around the developing world. You also will provide new opportunities and perhaps a greater vision for other volunteers. In the long run, we sincerely hope that we bring more cross-cultural understanding into the world.
