Program description: |
|
|
The Global Volunteer Network currently has volunteer opportunities available through our partner organization in Romania. Volunteers have the opportunity to join a Christian Mission which cares for disabled orphans. There are four group homes, and volunteers will work with orphans aged from ten year old children to young adults. The children have suffered so much at a young age, but with your help they will see a brighter future.
Each home is run like a family unit, where volunteers will act as a mother, father, brother, or sister. There are opportunities to teach, counsel and help with feeding, cooking and cleaning, depending on your skills and experiences. There is a huge focus on the children having FUN, being happy and enjoying the rest of their lives. This is in real contrast to the devastating conditions they have experienced in the state run institutions.
The minimum age for this program is 23. If this excludes you then you may be interested in our other orphanage programs in Nepal or Russia, or in one of the other programs listed above. You can start the program at any time during the year. There is a minimum volunteer time of 10 weeks and a maximum of 6 months (this may be extended with the Missions approval). Because of the nature of the work, all volunteers are required to obtain a doctor's certificate and a police report.
