Terms and Conditions

Please, read carefully the general rules for volunteer and internship projects.
By submitting your Volunteer/Internship Enrollment Form, you confirm that you acknowledge and accept the following terms and conditions:
    1.You confirm that you have read all of the information available on our website concerning the aim of the project, planned activities, accommodation, costs, terms of participation and you understand and accept the nature of the international voluntary project.

    2.You must meet the age and any other specific requirements as set in the project description.

    3.Individuals working for TeV who are competent and with good will to recruit volunteers for the charity projects precede all the enrollment requests. On any stage of the decision-making process or given support, the requests are not preceded by sophisticated technologies, electronically generated communication or software driven processing. Clearly and briefly, human beings are caring for the whole process related to the charity projects despite the few disadvantages that this may import.

    4.You can cancel your participation for any reason within 15 days from the start of the enrollment procedure, but no later than 30 days before the start of the project you are placed in. In this case you will get a full refund of your participation fee. Any refunds will be made less bank charges. The preparation of the projects and the recruitment of motivated volunteers is an effortful and timely process, which involves both TeV and its partner organisations in other countries. So for any cancellations out of the time limits mentioned above, TeV will not be able to make any refunds.

    5.If you are placed on a project, which is then cancelled, or if we are not able to place you according to your wishes, we will refund you in full the participation fee. Cancellation of a volunteer project occurs very rarely, but sometimes it cannot be avoided. We recommend that you take a travel insurance along with your travel tickets to protect yourselves in such cases. TeV is not responsible for refunding travel tickets or covering any other loss related to your travel arrangements.

    6.For any change of your placement requested by you, you will be charged US. $100. If the change cannot be done e.g. due to lack of free places, not enough time, etc., this sum will be refunded to you.

    7.We accept volunteers and interns from all countries.

    8.The long-term volunteer projects are not traditional package holidays, where timetables and arrangements can be clearly defined at all times. Some changes in the programme may occur depending on the needs of the hosting community or due to lack of resources for the charity action. TeV cannot be held responsible for occurrence of such changes.

    9.As the charity projects are organised to support communities in need of help, the living conditions provided for the participants are generally modest. TeV assures for the quality of the living conditions on any particular project place.

    10.Most of the projects are not accessible for people with disabilities, although, it is only the TeV Kiomoni Community Resource center have the ramp facility. People with disabilities have to contact TeV to get confirmation of that prior the start of the enrollment procedure.

    11.You will be expected to perform the tasks and duties foreseen for the implementation of the project and to facilitate the day-to-day running of the project on an equal basis as the other volunteers and under the direction of the project leader and local staff.

    12.You agree that pictures taken on the project, on which you may appear, can be used in TeV's website and promotional materials, in order to present and promote the volunteer projects and organisation's activities.

    13.You will be expected to behave in a manner consistent with the laws and customs of the host country. If you commit any illegal acts, offend local sensibilities, put at risk the welfare or safety of yourself or others, or act in a manner detrimental to the project, the organisation, or the local hosts, you will be required to leave the project promptly without recourse or refund.

    14.In the event of you choosing to leave the project at any time, or if the staff has instructed you to leave, we are released of any responsibility for your welfare immediately.

    15.We are not responsible for any loss, cancellation, damage or injury arising as a consequence of natural disasters, weather conditions, fire, computer or systems failure, acts of war, terrorism, civil unrest, confiscation by or under the order of any government or public local authority, or for any other reasons beyond our control.

    16.TeV does not provide insurance cover for you or your possessions. We are not liable for the loss, wear or damage to any personal items. You are advised to provide yourselves with appropriate health, accident and travel insurance for the time of the project.

    17.It is participant’s responsibility to ensure that he has the necessary passport, tickets, documents, visas, and vaccinations in order to enter and stay in Tanzania.

    18.Volunteers cover their travel costs to their project placements. During the project TeV provides board and lodging for the participants at a cost. Any other personal costs are at the volunteer's responsibility.

    19.Any information given by us about flights, visas, healthcare, vaccinations, climate, clothing, equipment, conditions and other matters is given in good faith but without responsibility on our part. It is volunteer's responsibility to check the specific rules and regulations concerning his/her travel to Tanzania.

    20.Volunteers and interns are required to arrive in Tanzania on the advertised dates. Arrival dates other than those will cost a surcharge of US$.50 per person.
