SCHEDULE

WEEKLY SCHEDUlE

The schedule below will be our regular weekly schedule run for the duration of the program, excluding scheduled breaks and national holidays.

Monday to Saturday AM - Workdays

Saturday afternoon and full day Sundays - Time off for rest and explore

We are only able to receive volunteers on Tuesdays through Thursdays before 5:00 PM. We are not able to accommodate arrivals on other days.

Please make sure to plan your arrival accordingly. After you arrive on the program, you will receive a base tour, and review our code of conduct one more time. You will most likely start working on the site in the afternoon or the next working day.

DAILY SCHEDUlE

We will be starting our days early because the Philippines is very hot!

Breakfast will be available from 6 AM and we will be leaving for the site at 6:45 AM. Lunch typically starts at noon and then the work will continue between 1 and 4 PM. We will also factor in some 10-15 minute water breaks throughout the day to make sure everyone stays hydrated and gets some rest. Each day in the evening, we will have a mandatory meeting and after that, dinner will be served. Every All Hands and Hearts base has a curfew and quiet hours in place to ensure we all get enough rest before the next working day. Please remember that these are non-negotiable and apply both to staff and volunteers. We are taking our work very seriously so we expect that you will understand and obey the rules to help us make this program a successful one!

Please support us in ensuring that we can run the program sustainably by setting up a personal fundraising page and reaching out to your friends and family, asking for donations and advocacy for our work.
