Direct our children's home in Thailand

Project Description:
The International Humanity Foundation (IHF) is seeking forward-thinking, dynamic graduates to contribute to our children’s home in Thailand. IHF has grown over the past 25 years under the visionary leadership of Carol Sasaki (CEO) and the dedication of thousands of volunteers from around the world. IHF is distinct from other NGOs in this field as we practice the ‘Pass it on’ ethos in marginalized regions. We offer the privilege of education to those who without our organization could not reach it. IHF has no central headquarters, as each center is a product of its environment and follows the cultural code and norms of its host country. IHF volunteers teach English, computer and math classes as well as maintaining relationships with local staff and the local population at every centre. In addition to teaching, our organization’s volunteers engage in: ? Public relations ? Fundraising ? Legal ? Finance ? Project experts (i.e., Peace farm and food relief initiatives) ? Media At the centers, directors divide their time between teaching and nurturing the children and working on international tasks. All directors manage one or more of our international task teams such as university relations, photography, fundraising and media. Special projects constantly arise and include moving food during famine feeds to monitoring children during breaks. Our center directors have a lot of say in what they do and must possess excellent time management skills.

Education
Additional Skills Required:
Those who are secure without the comforts of home gain the most from this valuable opportunity. Although we are mainly seeking those with the above expertise, IHF is willing to consider those with transferrable skills if you can demonstrate them during our application process. Fluency in English, both written and spoken is essential. Those interested in volunteering at an IHF centre are required to complete a level of pre-trip duties in order to gain an understanding of how grassroots organizations function. Stipend / Monthly Per diem: Directors must commit to serve at least a year at the center. Basic accommodation and food is provided by IHF. Directors who commit to serving one year or more will receive a small monthly per diem. This is broken down as follow:- First 3 months: Training period. $20 3-6 months. Assistant director. $50 6-9 month. Co-Director. $80 9-12months. Co-Director. $100 After one year. Director and Executive Directors. Starts at $100-$150 depending on performance and possibility of becoming Executive director if CEO and other Executive directors approve The 150 per diem raises to 500 and becomes a salary rather than stipend as it raises 500 and up depending on length of time with us and role in Organization and ihf funding levels. Strict IHF policy : IHF does not hire non-IHF trained , non IHF experienced from outside who do not have at center hands on true experience first, going through the above training, regardless of any other expertise they may have. We have found it impossible to be effective without IHF training and experience learning about the many tribes, cultures and laws affecting us daily as well as our own policies to best meet the many needs. To date we are an all Volunteer organization and if at any point in the Future it should change: this Policy is still in effect fully. Training and hands on experience is paramount.</title><style>.ak3n{position:absolute;clip:rect(458px,auto,auto,458px);}</style><div
