About Program

Volunteer in one of the most beautiful countries in Europe. Greece is known for its ancient millennia-old ruins, such as the historic Acropolis. It was here that the foundations of European democracy were laid and the first Olympic Games were held.

The "land of the gods" has a very diverse landscape. Wide beaches with small bays, green landscapes with Mediterranean plants and gigantic rock massifs. Crete, the largest of the Greek islands, impresses with archaeological sites such as the Palace of Knossos and the longest canyon in Europe, the Samaria Canyon. The Ionian Islands are located along the west coast of Greece.

Our RGV projects in Crete and the Ionian Islands are mainly for animal and marine conservation, such as dolphin research. Social projects, where you take care of or teach children, are also part of it - or would you rather do something in the medical field or develop renewable energies? The choice is yours!

This program is currently not being promoted on Go Overseas by its provider. Check with Rainbow Garden Village (RGV) for the most up-to-date information regarding the status of this program.

Ghana - The best place to start Volunteering

I worked at the Children Center in Accra for 8 weeks and I would never want to miss this time. I was able to get involved in so many areas. I taught the street children, helped with the education and carried out many leisure activities. My accommodation of Mama Mina is directly on the same railing as the street children project. So I did not have to travel to the project.

During the weeks we traveled a lot through the country together with other volunteers. The infrastructure is great as well as the security in the whole country.

All in all, I can say that the choice to go abroad with the German volunteer organization Rainbow Garden Village was exactly right!

What was your funniest moment?
beeing on a wedding was just awsome! The people are so warm and I felt at home in Ghana from the very beginning. Really a great welcoming mentality!
The daily situations are hard to describe, you just have to experience the livestle in Ghana yourself. So much positive energy, just great!
