Program Overview

This program makes a truly positive impact on vulnerable children, including those with physical and mental challenges, and people from local communities. Volunteers are desperately needed to support numerous projects: providing care and love to impoverished children, day-to-day care of people facing challenges in their everyday lives, and assisting in older adult facilities. Duties vary depending on individual interests and skills.

Volunteer help is crucial to the viability of these projects and, thus, greatly appreciated. The role requires a love for working with children and those who need it, and a high level of patience. Volunteers must be flexible and willing to assist wherever needed. They should also understand local community situations and the challenges associated with such placements.
