Help Building Projects, Gardening, and Painting in Bali



LEAP

THIS COMPANY IS NOT RELATED TO CHILDREN OF BALI IN ANY WAY, THEY ARE AN EXTERNAL BUSINESSES.

PLEASE READ THE NOTES AT THE END OF THIS ARTICLE BEFORE YOU PART WITH YOUR MONEY!

Located in Denpasar, Bali
Joining LEAP as a volunteer gives you the opportunity, not to just visit the projects run by LEAP by to become a part of them. Each volunteer’s experience is unique. We try to match your skills and interests to the projects that are ongoing at the time and to find your niche amongst the team.

We ask each volunteer to come for a minimum of 1 month, this way you really get to experience what it means to live and work out here.

Before you come, we ask you to write a page about yourself, your skills, interests and experience and reason for wanting to volunteer with LEAP. We retain the right to accept or reject any application at our own discretion.

We charge a small fee of Rp150,000 per person per day (approx US 16.00) this covers your accommodation and food while you are with us. This amount needs to be paid if full before you arrive and in non refundable.

Work:
During your month, you will follow the work day of the rest of the LEAP staff and team. You will be placed with a staff member who works in the area of your skills and assist them in their daily work. Sometimes they will speak English, sometimes not!

The work that you do each day will depend on your skills and abilities. You may be helping out with the Coconut Kids Club, assisting in the Fibre-glass canoe building workshop, helping with building projects, gardening, painting or general maintenance jobs. We ask that you be flexible and willing to learn, try new things and have fun at the same time.

Accommodation:

More volunteering opportunities in BaliDepending on when you come you will either be living on land or on the boat, neither can be guaranteed and we expect you to be flexible in this regard. Living accommodation on board the boat may be a bunk in a cabin; it may be a mattress on the floor. On land you will be housed in the LEAP bungalow where you may have a room to yourself, or you may share with others.

Food:

Food varies from western style meals to Indonesian dishes made from locally available produce. It may be difficult for vegetarians staying on land, as sometimes vegetables are limited as is alternate sources of protein and it helps if you eat fish. We provide you with three meals per day, we ask that you eat together with the rest of the group. Any snacks or meals outside of those provided by LEAP are at your own expense.
