Volunteer

“A sustainable future needs to have a 21st century kampung culture where people have an open heart and are open to constant unlearning and relearning.”

~ Tay Lai Hock, late founder of Ground-Up Initiative (GUI)

Volunteer Opportunities

GUI Volunteers support the daily needed tasks to upkeep Kampung Kampus, home of GUI, for more to come to connect with Nature, Self and Others.

To participate in GUI volunteer programmes is like walking into a School of Life using Kampung Kampus as a space to practise lifelong capacities and experience various means of sustainable living.

The basic tasks may involve farm work, wood work, kitchen work, housekeeping and logistic preparation. For regular volunteers, there could be tasks on reception, retail, Earth Oven baking, cooking, landscaping, programme facilitation, tour leading, event-support, skills-based functions, and etc.
