Most heart-warming experience of my life
December 02, 2025by: Sidi Jut - NetherlandsProgram: Street Children & Youth Volunteer Project in GhanaVolunteering with SMWEF Ghana has been one of the most meaningful and heart-warming experiences of my life, and it is something I would recommend to absolutely anyone. I volunteered with SMWEF for two months in 2025, and from the moment I arrived, I was welcomed with open arms by Naomi and Seth. SMWEF is deeply committed to giving every child a fair chance at a brighter future. The warmth and kindness these children carry with them is truly indescribable. Being able to put a smile on their faces by giving them the love, time, and attention they deserve is incredibly fulfilling. Their joy and love is so pure and heartwarming, it gave me such a different perspective. The love and passion that Seth and Naomi have for these children is equally indescribable. They give everything they have to give these children a chance at a better future. Their dedication, strength, and wholehearted commitment are truly inspiring. I have the deepest respect for their mission and the tireless work they do every day. You can see and feel the impact they make every single day you are there and they will take you along with every part of the process. SMWEF still needs all the support they can get, and every volunteer truly makes a difference. I cannot recommend SMWEF highly enough. Volunteering with them will fill your heart, broaden your perspective, and leave you with an experience you will cherish for the rest of your life.
Construction of the school
April 19, 2025by: Stephan Tritten - SwitzerlandProgram: Construction Volunteering Opportunities in GhanaI had the chance to spend some time in 2021 with Seth, Naomi and the children. That was a beautiful experience that i would highly recommend to anyone. I have participated in construction, in building some walls of new classrooms of the school.

One of the most meaningful experiences I’ve ever had.
March 18, 2025by: Schirli Goldberger - SwitzerlandProgram: Childcare Volunteer Project in GhanaI’ve traveled a lot, but volunteering for SMWEF was one of the most inspiring and meaningful experiences I’ve ever had. Seth and Naomi are incredibly kind and welcoming, and Naomi’s cooking is amazing. The accommodation is cozy and equipped with Western-style washrooms. The project is located in rural Ghana, where you can experience the country’s authentic culture. I even had the unique opportunity to attend a wedding and a funeral, which gave me a deep insight into their traditions and way of life. The organization’s work is inspiring and crucial. In a region known for child trafficking, they fight every day to rescue children and give them a chance for a better future through education. The children and the teachers in the school are simply amazing. I enjoyed everyday with them and I miss them a lot. Many important projects and plans are still in progress, and volunteers are essential in helping to make them happen. If you’re looking to make a real impact, this is the perfect opportunity. Just go for it! ?
