    Description

    Volunteer in Ghana  with 5 Days Tour

    21 Days of Volunteering and 5 Days Tour

    Our program is focused on addressing the needs of the street children forced from their homes through poverty, neglect or abuse.

    This project presents the opportunity to help Street Children and those who have lost their parents..

    You will be working at an orphanage or a day care centre for children in Ghana. The children live in the orphanage until they are adopted or placed with family members that can take better care of them.

    As a volunteer working on our Orphanage Program, you will be filling an important role in the lives of these needy children, as well as assisting the hardworking staff at the orphanage.

    You can help with all manner of tasks at the centre. Help is needed in everything from cooking and serving food to the children, to assisting with their basic education with sports and English lessons. You may also get involved with counselling sessions, so there are real prospects to make a difference.

    21 Days of Volunteering and 5 Days Tour

    After spending a few days working on the project volunteers will start 5 days tour to discover a country steeped in a rich cultural tradition but overshadowed by a tragic slave-trade history--the slave fort at Cape Coast being just one of the chilling reminders. The kakum National Park is the showpiece of the tour. A natural rainforest in the Central Region, and a traditional habitat for some 40 spieces of larger mammals including the forest elephant, rare plants, birds and butterflies. A new canopy walkway provides for an adventure and allows you to have a unique of the forest. Ghana is a land endowed by nature and rich in natural treasures. From the lush savannah of the coastal plain, the dense tropical rainforest and grasslands.

    Imprints of cultural groups can be found across the country, including the ancient mud-and-thatch houses. A day visit to the monkey sanctuary at Volta Region.

    Note: The 5 Days Tour itinerary will be in your pre-departure information pack.
