About Program
African children find themselves orphaned due to health/physical conditions, family deaths or simply because they are not wanted. These children, less- privileged from the start, need the tender love and care of volunteers who will help tutor the students, read to them, cook, clean, and most importantly, open their hearts and nurture them through the most important years of their lives
AbroadGuru World’s program in Ghana is amazingly valuable, and, as a childcare volunteer, you will brighten up the lives of young women and children who have already been through so much in their little lives.
AbroadGuru World’s volunteers support the local daycare centres, taking part in activities and games with the children, whilst helping local staff and mothers. This is an opportunity to really make a difference in the lives of young children who need a little sunshine 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.
