Volunteer Work

You could be using arts and music as a therapy to help children and youth who are abused and under stress or teach music and dance to children and youth to help them develop their awareness and appreciation of music, and learn how to play a musical instrument.

Volunteer Work

We have setup this project at local children and youth centre in Mukono, Uganda. You can teach children various instruments like the piano, cello and guitar etc. The children are aged between 8 and 19. It is therefore important that volunteers be enthusiastic about music and able to inspire the children to develop both theoretical and practical musical knowledge and skills.
