Marhaba: Volunteers in the Middle East
Marhaba: Volunteers in the Middle East is announcing its summer 2010 service-learning programs in Cairo, Egypt.

This year volunteers will either teach English classes at an Egyptian youth-led NGO which addresses urban poverty or teach extracurricular classes to refugee children in summer school. Students should expect to spend 15 to 20 hours per week volunteering. Additionally, we arrange Arabic courses, cultural events, and group trips throughout the summer.
Program Dates: June 22 – July 28, 2010
Application Deadline: March 15

Volunteers in Program I teach extracurricular classes for refugee children.

Marhaba is pleased to offer two scholarships of up to $1,000 to support volunteers in either program who would not otherwise be able to volunteer abroad.
