VOLUNTEER! How you can participate...
CREDO FOUNDATION
The volunteer programme is significant to the Centres as it works with professionals, corporate sponsors and people of the community to ensure that we develop a network of developmental support for our programmes and activities.

It is essential that our young people meet and interact with people who will be positive influences in their life; encourage them and participate in their learning and growth. It is important that we work with others who support our mission and who would serve as guides and teachers for our young people.

Programme Objectives:

• To advance educational and development programmes and projects at the Centre
• To provide support for present development programmes and activities
• To support residents in goal setting and achievement of positive results personally, at work, school and in extra-curricular pursuits
• To encourage interest and learning in areas of sports, literature, social issues and cultural activities
• To encourage social interaction

Recognising the importance of ensuring the safety of our young people, all volunteers to our programme need to provide references. They will be interviewed and appropriate background checks conducted. Orientation and training sessions may also be employed during the introduction of volunteers to the residents. You can also ask about the mentorship programme at each of our Centres.
YOU Can become a Mentor!
The mentorship programme is significant to the Centre as it works with professionals, corporate sponsors and people of the community to ensure that we develop a network of developmental support for our programmes and activities. Mentorship is particular in this regard as it becomes a significant relationship for young people to have a preferred relationship that focuses on them, their needs and their goals.

It is Important that:

• We work with others who support our mission and who would serve as guides and teachers for our young people
• Mentors be responsible for the safety of residents when off the premises
• Mentors commit to the relationship for at least one year
• In the case of serious difficulties or a breach in the relationship that mentors feel free to share their concerns with the Centre’s Co-ordinator
