Program description: |
|
|
The number of orphans in Ghana is a massive problem for the country's rudimentary social welfare services, and is being made worse by the HIV/AIDS situation. In the orphanages that do exist, staff struggle with very limited resources to feed, clothe and educate the children in their care. But staff all too often simply don't have the time to provide the individual love and attention that these children need so they can live as normal a childhood as they can.
It is in that role - spending time with the children, playing with them and putting a smile on their faces - that Projects Abroad volunteers are so valuable. Whether you are taking a group out for an afternoon on the beach, helping older children with school homework or playing a game with the younger ones, you will be an essential part of their development.
