Back over here, I hinted at all the successes that Meaningful Volunteer has had in 2009 thanks to its merry band of volunteers, but did not have the space to enumerate them all.  Now as the new year begins, its seems fitting to list the successes.

So, here it is! Meaningful Volunteer's year in review:

General

Philippines

RYE School Program

Project Mangrove

Project Lifecycle

 School Building Project
 

Meaningful Shop

Uganda

Malcolm is Meaningful Volunteers's founder.  

He was born and bred in South Auckland and had a successful ten year career in information technology before volunteering for six months in the Philippines and nine months in Africa.

He became disillusioned with the "volunteer tourism" he saw, and founded Meaningful Volunteer so that international volunteers could make a real and meaningful impact on developing communities.
