Описание
We are looking for one exceptional volunteer to complete our team of 6 for a life changing experience. The project will take place in Point Blanche the prison of Sint Maarten (Dutch side) and MLC Juvenille centre here we will have equal number of detainees and international volunteers working on the creation, illustration and photography for a book we will create together - Beneath the Cover - where inmates from the wider prison population will have the chance to tell their story - either their past life or the future vision or maybe both. You will work along a group of amazing men who are open to changing the trajectory of their lives. We expect you to give alot but to gain even more. It is unlikely that this experience will not effect you for the rest of your life. To work on this project with these men is a priveledge, hence our search for a special volunteer.
