Frequently Asked Questions

ICHARS-SF has been operating virtually since April 2020 and our volunteering opportunities are also fully virtual as a result!

The application is a 4 step process. Please see below:

By contributing your skills and expertise, you will strengthen and endorse the amazing work being done to create a sustainable ecosystem that promotes mental wellbeing. You should apply if:
  • You are passionate about making a positive difference in the lives of people around
  • You are planning to study abroad and want to boost your resume
  • You want to inspire people to live a happier, healthier and a more fulfilling life

Sustainable change in perception and mindset required to remove stigma, takes persistent effort over a period of time. Meticulous planning and execution of a project requires time especially when we strive to do so to do the best of our capacity.

Normally we only take on volunteers/interns who can commit to a minimum of three months, in order for the volunteer and the organisation to get the most out of the virtual volunteering experience.

On a daily basis, except in case of crowdfunding volunteers, you are expected to give around an hour for this volunteership.

Applications are open all year round. Ideally, a candidate would apply to be a volunteer about 1 month before they would like to start their placement.

At ICHARS-SF we use online workplaces like facebook groups, google meet, restream and Zoom to create a cohesive virtual working environment. The same applies to the partners we work with and the projects we take on.

Usually, you will be assigned to one of ICHARS-SF’s ongoing projects. What you do within that project will depend on your learning objectives and the opportunities available during your time at ICHARS-SF.

For details about each volunteer/internship opportunity, do check the specific opportunity on internshala or connectfor platforms.
