It has been four years since I spent a month volunteering in the village of Domeabra with Solutions for Life Initiative-Ghana and I still think about my amazing experience regularly. I learned so much about the people and culture of Ghana during my time in Domeabra, made some amazing connections, and hopefully helped improve the lives of some children along the way. Not to mention the wonderful support I was given during my time there; Sally (and her husband Nana) were always there to help me with anything I needed, even welcoming me into their home on the weekends so I could visit and explore in the larger city of Kumasi. And my host mother, Anti Ama, and fellow Domeabra villagers were eager to assist me in any way they could. All around it was an incredible, life-changing experience!
What would you improve about this program?
More structure for what you would like the volunteer to accomplish while they are there that can be sustainably continued after they leave.
