All our project are based in and around the town of Koforidua the capital of the Eastern Region of Ghana. Koff town is a Laid back place that is small enough yet not too small and it is situcated centrally to be able to travel and explore the other areas in Ghana. This is a great location to volunteer.
As a volunteer on this project you will be a teacher's assistant in rural elementary schools and orphanages in Koforidua. English is the official language in Ghana and it is the language spoken in schools after kindergarten. However, not all Ghanaians who attend school can speak English well. Learn more
As a volunteer on this project, you will be working with children in rural orphanages in Koforidua. In Ghana there are two types of orphanages: those funded by the government, and those that are privately-owned. The government-funded orphanages tend to be urban-based, large, and institutional, while the privately-operated orphanages tend to be smaller and run by a variety of different organizations. The smaller orphanages tend to have fewer resources, and are funded by donations from local groups, churches, and individuals. Learn more
