Volunteer Work with Children in Ghana for Teenagers

Our 2-week Care & Community Projects in Ghana are based in either Cape Coast or the Akuapem Hills. In both locations, you will be hosted by a local family, which allows you to become fully immersed in the Ghanaian way of life. Volunteers based in Cape Coast will spend two weeks working in an orphanage or a local school. By putting in a new floor or painting a mural on a neglected wall, you will be making a valuable and lasting contribution to the children's daily lives. Volunteers in the Akuapem Hills will become part of a small friendly community. In the mornings you will be working on a community project, helping paint and renovate a local school. In the afternoons you will work at one of the care projects in the Hills, playing games and arranging activities for the children.
