4. Sort out and help distribute non-food items (diapers, wipes, feminine hygiene products, etc.);
5. Provide and support any special activities in accordance to your gifts, such as craft sessions for women, beauty services (manicure/pedicure/hairstyling) music lessons, clowning, children’s educational and recreational programmes, etc.
6. Helping with distribution of food, helping to set up tents, etc.

About You:

You need to have a vibrant faith and a willingness to serve.  If you have skills like nursing/teaching/physiotherapy/community health/mental health/children’s work/Youth work/etc. then that is great but if you don’t have those skills, don’t worry.  We want people that are willing to work hard and be the hands and feet of Jesus to bring joy and hope to those without hope.
