Be a part of  super Hero team: Most of the members are social workers, who are professionals, working for our job/career and beside that also there are some shining university students who are keen to make a great difference in to the community. So members are working Monday - Friday working for their job and Saturday- Sunday, without hanging out, work together for helping the community, that's why the members of VSHR are called as real life super hero/heroine.

The Strategy of the projects

Strategy on Sustainable development: Our key focus is - our initiative needs to create sustainable impact on the community also our initiative itself must be sustainable as well.

The 'Project driving' Experience

English Communication: Vietnam is for Vietnamese people. So main language is also Vietnamese. English is not an official language but most VSHR members are able to communicate in English. However,  you will need to be patient and respect their this downside. It will be a great experience for you to learn how to overcome the communication barrier.

Your self communication: Be transparent, honest, and clear communicative. Completely avoid - talking about people's on their back, avoid making jokes which can hurt people feelings, telling one person's chit chat content to another people.  VSHR members really hate such behavior. If you already think you almost getting in to a conflict due to another person's unacceptable behavior, then you can request support from Program Director. If you violet this rule, your internship can be even terminated.

Working with your team: Be very respectful to your team members, when you are assigned to a project, you will need to know - your project team member, build your connection with them, share your passion, and add high contribution to earn team member's respect. Don't expect they will respect or listen to you without doing so. One important suggestion, be open and request feedback from program director time to time, it will make you understand if you are on right track. 

Office working hours: In VSHR we are all social workers. So we have our own professional jobs living during weekday. So our full time VSHR office sessions are on weekend. Full time 8.30 am - 7 PM (tentative).
Ya, we basically spend our all weekend to develop sustainable - scalable projects for helping community by sacrificing our relaxing weekend. During the weekday, you will be working offsite. If you have student project team members, you will inspire and invite them to work with them during the weekdays offsite. One key point, even though during the weekday you will be working offsite. During the weekend you can have 2 days off. You can request to fix these two days at the beginning of your internship. 

The Award you will gain

After completing your volunteer program you will achieve a completion award. If your contribution get rated as outstanding and you go beyond your role/responsibilities, then you will receive a special award named - Social Shaper.
