Volunteer in Childcare/Special Needs in China
by: International Volunteer HQ [IVHQ]
Given China’s one-child policy and the value Chinese society places on male babies, the country has seen a significant increase in the rate of child abandonment. Plus, many parents in China cannot afford special education or focused care for their children with physical or mental disabilities.

Given China’s one-child policy and the value Chinese society places on male babies, the country has seen a significant increase in the rate of child abandonment.

Expect minimal material comfort and leave the cosmopolitan and developed country mindset behind and you will enjoy it.
That was great!
by: Pablo LuengoProgram: Volunteer in Childcare/Special Needs in ChinaI think the best thing is seeing how the children progress and especially how some of them were able to learn the whole English alphabet during my two weeks there. That was not something I expected and I really loved the moment at the end of the volunteering project when they started reciting it together. That was great!
