Volunteer Ghana: My overall experience about the program is very good. I was welcomed by the locals with open hands; my host family was super friendly, supportive and was a pleasure to spend time with. I didn’t happen to have any security or health issues or concerns. Pupils at school were very talented, eager to learn and easy to work with.

I can’t wait to come back. Continue reading Volunteer Ghana Kasoa Review Alvyra Teaching child care program
