United Through Sport South Africa (UTSSA) is greatly pleased to welcome international volunteersinterns to South Africa, especially to the friendly Nelson Mandela Bay (Port Elizabeth area) in the province of the Eastern Cape.
South Africa is an ideal destination as it combines no exhaustive travel potential with quality sports activities and extraordinary diversity. So if you want a real human, cultural and unique African experience through a rewarding volunteer placement, you are sure to find a project that quenches your thirst for discovery.
At United Through Sport South Africa we have three main programmes
1) Mass Participation Programme
2) Junior School of Excellence
3) Senior School of Excellence
Each of their programmes are made up of a number of projects that contribute to their effective functioning.
We are committed to using sport as a tool to develop the disadvantaged and vulnerable youth.
You will create a great relationship with the children. In their eyes, you are the one who gives them an opportunity for their future.
And it looks good on your CV as well.
