I wanted to do volunteering, but I did not have the skills to actually help construct a school, for example, or to go teach. So that&rsquo;s why I was looking at <a class=\"glossaryLink\"  aria-describedby=\"tt\"  data-cmtooltip=\"&lt;div class=glossaryItemTitle&gt;Pro bono&lt;\/div&gt;&lt;div class=glossaryItemBody&gt;Pro Bono is an instrument to get professionals and leaders involved in voluntary engagement. They use their skills in the service of a good cause &ndash; that is, pro bono &ndash; without being paid for it. For most NGOs do not have the resources to buy professional services. In generell Pro bono publico (English: for the public good; usually shortened to pro bono) is a Latin phrase for professional work undertaken voluntarily and without payment. Unlike traditional volunteerism, it is service that uses the specific skills of professionals to provide services to those who are unable to afford them.&lt;\/div&gt;\"  href=\"https:\/\/amaidi.org\/en\/glossar\/pro-bono\/\"  target=\"_blank\"  data-gt-translate-attributes='[{\"attribute\":\"data-cmtooltip\", \"format\":\"html\"}]'  tabindex='0' role='link'>pro bono<\/a> consulting, which is consulting for NGOs and nonprofits.<\/p>\n<p>In my search, I came across some ideas and <strong>AMAID immediately stood out because they are very professional in their communication. The website was great and they just responded also very, very quickly and very efficiently. So I really, really liked that.<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>AMAIDI helped me to match with an organization in Malawi call Youth Activities Initiative Organizationen, which is what brings me here today.<\/p>\n<\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/section>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Learn about Niels&rsquo; experiences with AMAIDI.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":20427,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"video","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[224,227,91,115],"tags":[670,98],"class_list":["post-20467","post","type-post","status-publish","format-video","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-africa","category-malawi-en","category-news","category-volunteer-reports","tag-interview-en","tag-pro-bono-en","post_format-post-format-video"],"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO plugin v27.6 - https:\/\/yoast.com\/product\/yoast-seo-wordpress\/ -->\n<title>Interview with Niels: What are your experiences with AMAIDI?
