Volunteer Information Sheet For HOPELINE

Dear Volunteer,
Thank you for deciding to become a part of the Natasha Goulbourn Foundation family. Through
Gods grace, we have been brought together so that we can empower the Philippine nation to
take a more proactive step in recognizing and treating depression. This mental illness is still seen
as a taboo in this society. This unfortunate misunderstanding has led millions of people not to
seek help and suffer in silence. Through your kindness and generosity, we are one step closer in
bringing depression to light. Below you will find a list of activities we would need assistance in.
To ensure an effective and meaningful relationship, we ask that you please check which activity
you would like to be active in, and how many hours you can commit.
Please remember that while we appreciate your enthusiasm to be part of our group, we need
people who are committed to be active. We are on a mission to save lives, and this advocacy
requires dedication.
Kindly fill out the form as accurately and completely as possible. For any concerns, please do
contact us at (+632) 897 2217 or 8962068 or visit our website at www.ngf-hope.org.
Yours sincerely,
Jean Goulbourn
President
The Natasha Goulbourn Foundation is a non-profit organization dedicated to bringing depression to

light through the use of educational lectures, confidential crisis lines and referrals to partner
psychologists. We see ourselves as a hub whose primary goal is information awareness on depression and
how one can prevent, recognize or treat this mental illness.
In our efforts to launch a nationwide campaign of mental fitness and health, we have partnered with
Department of Health (DOH), Department of Education (DepEd) and Department of Social Welfare and
Development (DSWD) along with top schools such as University of the Philippines, Ateneo de Manila
University and Miriam College. We are currently working on partnering with several cities, civic
organization and psychology clinics so that we can further our mission.

Kindly check the area of activity you would like to be active in. Please do only check TWO (2)
AT THE MOST:
Research
- We need to know more about depression! Checking this box would mean gathering
information on the latest news on the treatment of depression. This includes, but is
not limited to: the medical aspect (anti-depressants, etc.), traditional or ancient
methods (such as electric shock) and alternative (such as using food and exercise in
treating depression).
- Compiling data from Western sources is accepted, but data from the Philippines (or
Southeast Asia, when not possible) is highly encouraged
- Volunteers under this area should be knowledgeable in proper citation of reference
(such as APA or MLA)- We do not plagiarize and cite our sources properly!
Media partnership
- Lessening the stigma attached to depression requires educating the public about it.
We hope to come out monthly in magazines or have regular appearances on television
and radio.
- This is divided into two aspects: those that will coordinate and set up these
interviews/write-ups and those that will be talking/writing about it.
- Volunteers may choose to do both aspects or be assigned to a specific area. Survivors
of attempted suicide are encouraged to talk or write about their personal experience.
Fund-raising
- As with any non-profit organization, we depend on the kindness of companies and
private individuals.
- Volunteers knowledgeable in writing sponsorship letters or communicating with
companies or individuals are encouraged to be part of this area.
Lecture
- We plan on having lectures in schools, churches and communities monthly. We
would need volunteers to help us coordinate, manage and plan these activities.
Merchandising
- NGF would need people who are skilled in marketing our existing products and
thinking of new products
- Volunteers would assist in partnering with different clothing/retail brands
Events
- NGF has annual fund-raising events which would require a team to help set-up and
prepare. This includes, but is not limited to, coordinating for the venue, pricing, food
(if necessary), seating and any other requirements necessary for an event.
