Individuals
We would like to partner with individuals who have a heart for working with children and families in need. We have possibilities for short term and long term volunteering. As a short term volunteer you work alongside our staff to experience our daily work. You also get the opportunity to visit the community. For long term volunteers the minimum period is 3 months (preferably longer). We can assist you in your application for a work permit. As a long term volunteer you become part of our team and also get the opportunity to bring in your own expertise and skills.
Teams
We would like to partner with organisations / businesses / churches which send short term teams to work with children in need. Such an experience will have a profound impact on your team, exposing them to poverty and the reality of life in Africa. They will appreciate their own lives so much more thereafter. Teams can come any time during the year. Please contact us to check whether the time that you are planning to come will overlap with another visiting team.

After we receive your filled in Volunteer Form, we will contact you. You can only volunteer at Beautiful Kidz, once you receive approvement. Send the filled in Volunteer Form to office@beautifulkidz.org.

You will possibly stay at the Youth With A Mission (YWAM) base in Brakwater (just outside Windhoek). Once you apply, we will look into availablility and cost of accomodation.

Namibia is one of the safest and most peaceful countries in Africa. We do advise you to follow normal safety precautions and be streetwise.

Transport is available to and from the airport or the city on request and at a fee of 300 Namibian dollars. Transport can be arranged from the YWAM base to the Beautiful Kidz centre.

You will have to provide and prepare your own food, though Beautiful Kidz provides a lunch on week days. Kitchen facilities are available at the YWAM base and shopping can be done in the city.
Costs:
Please inquire with us about an indication of the cost on accommodation and personal expenses and food.

You will need a work visa should you do volunteer work at Beautiful Kidz. We will apply for a work visa on your behalf and the cost of the visa can be paid back to us once you have arrived in Namibia. Please inquire with us about the cost of a work visa.
