Program description: |
|
|
Volunteers teaching placement opportunities are available in schools throughout the Volta Region of Ghana. Most children in rural community schools lack quality education as a result of teachers refusing posting to rural community schools due to inadequate or lack of facilities in these schools. Volunteers are needed to make a lasting difference in Ghanaian community schools through education while experiencing African life and culture.
