About Program

Come volunteer at our friendly community center and make a meaningful impact in the lives of Syrian refugee children. Our center serves as a safe haven for Syrian families, providing essential support and fostering a nurturing environment where they can rebuild their lives.

As a volunteer, you will engage in a variety of enriching activities that cater to the diverse needs of our community. One of the critical areas of support is physiotherapy, where you can help children regain their physical strength and mobility, offering them a chance to overcome the physical challenges they face.

Teaching local children is another cornerstone of our volunteer program. By offering educational support, you empower these young minds, helping them catch up on lost schooling and giving them the tools they need for a brighter future. Your efforts can ignite a passion for learning and instill a sense of hope and possibility in their lives.

Consider your impact: Volunteering abroad can be a rewarding experience for both volunteers and local communities, and at Go Overseas, we believe all volunteers should have the resources to make informed decisions about the type of volunteer project they want to partake in. However, despite best intentions, some organizations offering placements in orphanages may unknowingly place children in danger. You can read about the potential dangers of orphanage volunteering here.

What was your funniest moment?
The kids were generally so funny and always kept me laughing! Since I’m Egyptian, they would often make playful references to lines from Egyptian movies. It was hilarious and heartwarming to see how much they knew about Egyptian culture, and their jokes made our time together even more enjoyable!
