Volunteer at an Orphanage in Ghana

 

It's hard to imagine a volunteer experience more fulfilling than working at an orphanage in Ghana. The basics are usually taken care of for the children, like their meals and a place to stay. But, with limited local staff available, there is only so much love and caring available for the children. That's why the children so eagerly await the arrival of volunteers, who can give the kids more attention and love.

The volunteers' activities at the orphanages depend both on the needs of the individual orphanage, as well as the skills and interests of the volunteers themselves. Many volunteers begin by teaching English to the kids. Then, as volunteers become more comfortable, they can share their interests and experience in a particular discipline, like art, music, dance, sports, etc. With the help of the staff, volunteers can also arrange daytrips for the kids.
