About Program
This is a nursery school for children aged 1-5 years, located in the traditional fisherman’s village community of Hangberg. This community has been ravaged by drug and alcohol addiction and abuse and its children have suffered the results, such as physical abuse and neglect. Many of these children have parents who are addicted to alcohol, drugs or both.
The minimum duration for this project is 2 weeks. We can hand craft a package just for you if you wish. Stay 2 weeks, 3 weeks…we find the optimal duration is from 4 weeks upwards, but having said that, we will take all the help we get. All hands on deck!
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.
