Are you looking for a volunteer opportunity outside your comfort zone? Are you looking to teach, nurture and inspire young minds? Well then, perhaps you should get in touch with Without Borders
The Changing Classroom Project
Without Borders Sri Lanka runs a learning facility in Deraniyagala, Dangamapala , Kahanwita and Lassanamaga. The learning facilities have been in operation for the past two years. The organization focuses on three of the most in-demand skills needed which is language skills – English, Leadership and Leading Change and Creativity
While charity only meets the very present need, bringing long lasting transformation and change requires an ongoing effort. Like the Chinese proverb says “If you give a man a fish, you will feed him for a day. Teach a man to fish, and you feed him for a lifetime. Which is what Without Borders attempts to do through all of their projects. Without Borders provides long-term solutions to end poverty in rural Sri Lanka through education.
