Schoolies & Service Learning Adventure in West Africa
Program Overview
Group leaders and teachers travel free on this fully structured, 15-day adventure in Ghana, led by an experienced local team. After arriving in Accra, you'll travel to Kumasi for a detailed orientation into Ghanaian life.
Spend your first days making a real impact in rural communities by working alongside local villagers to build a house for a deserving family. Get hands-on with activities like hammering nails, sawing wood, digging, and engaging with local children. After a few days of volunteering, enjoy an exciting adventure at Mole National Park.
In your second week, continue work on the house and support a grassroots outreach project that brings clean water, emergency medical care, sanitation facilities, and free education to remote communities. The journey wraps up with cultural exploration and relaxation at Cape Coast and Oasis Beach.
Throughout the expedition, enjoy cultural activities such as drumming, dancing, and an art class. Your experience includes all airport transfers, meals, accommodation, entrance fees, and cultural events.
