"I came across Concordia in the summer of 2011 when looking
for an overseas volunteering project in Nepal. From the moment of asking for
more details to being in the orphanage Concordia staff could not have been more
helpful, friendly and professional. The fact that I had to go on training
before I could participate in a project gave me confidence of Concordia’s
professional approach, and the training was FANTASTIC!! I met such great,
like-minded people and the training was really thought provoking and helped me
in my project.
Since 2011, I love every opportunity to be involved with
Concordia; having participated in a project in Nepal (which was AMAZING!),
assisted Concordia staff in conducting North-South training, been a volunteering
coordinator on a UK project in Sussex,
and then assisted with the coordinator training. Ooh, and I also help with the
project inputting every year. I always meet fabulous people every time I
volunteer and cannot thank the Concordia staff enough for their welcoming and
inclusive attitude to volunteering… they always make me feel like I belong
there and even when we are busy, we have fun along the way!
Personally and professionally, getting involved with
Concordia is one of the most rewarding things I have done and I can’t wait for
the next training in June! GET INVOLVED – IT’S GREAT!!"
