About Program

Volunteers will help at our school for orphans, but a learning centre from kindergarten to seventh grade level, with students aged from 4 years to 16 years. The volunteers will play a major role in helping teachers and children throughout the school day across all aspects, and assisting with the running of the school activities.

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.
