The Vodafone Foundation is once again offering eight people in the UK the chance to work for a UK charity overseas for one year, and be paid to do so.
Those selected will receive up to £25,000 salary plus £20,000 expenses for costs directly associated with the work from the Vodafone Foundation. Vodafone will also give each winner the latest mobile phone so they can share their thoughts and experiences via the internet.
Nick Sireau, SolarAid's Executive Director, said: "Vodafone Foundation's World of Difference award is a fantastic opportunity for highly talented individuals to commit a year of their life to a charity they believe in.
"At SolarAid, we've found it invaluable to have World of Difference awardee Miguel Ramirez working for us and a huge boost to our solar work in the developing world."
World of Difference is the flagship programme of The Vodafone Foundation and currently operates in 12 Vodafone Foundations around the World. So far 120 people around the world have participated in the programme.
The closing date for applications is 30 July 2009.
