Volunteer with Community Child Development Orphanage in Uganda

I volunteered for 3 weeks teaching at the school. The kids were lovely! The needs of education and infraestructurre in the area are big. The people over there are amazing. All the neighborhood received me very nicely and Dan, Hope and Alice helped me a lot and gave me all I needed. They are very committed with the cause and are genuine people.
I totally recommend to choose these types of experiences for life.
I would love to go back as soon as I get the opportunity.

I got to spend a lot of time with the children. They have a beautiful mural of the world on one school room wall and I had fun showing the kids where I live and how far I traveled to see them. My first day there we had an impromptu lesson on the board making learning and drawing a fun game. Later in the week I taught the kids how to embroider. Those who already knew how to sew enjoyed having something fun to sew. And those who didn't know how to sew got to learn in a really fun way. The next week I got to teach the girls about their body and distributed Days For Girls kits. The teachers were supportive and helpful and the director was compassionate and involved with everything the kids did. I had a wonderful time and recommend this orphanage to anyone wanting to make a difference.
