Volunteer Program Volunteering in the orphanage is a really great opportunity to experience the obstacles and rewards of serving helpless people. The high mortality rate for mothers during childbirth, as well as the short life expectancy in general, leaves thousands of children without parents each year from conflict and other dieses.  As a result, most of these needy children are deprived of education and find work as child laborers in restaurants, factories, hotels, slaves, and as trash collectors. These disadvantaged children need attention, love, care, and the opportunity to further their education. Orphanages provide these kids with daily meals, a bed, Education in school and some hope. Volunteers will be placed either in orphanages or in the host family near to the orphanages, where they will spend most of the time with the children, assisting them in their day-to-day routines.
The children are mostly between the ages of four and thirteen and have a basic understanding of English. The general role of the volunteer will be to act as an older sibling: to care for, look after and encourage the children. Volunteers will teach the children general life skills, including health and sanitation, as well as arts, crafts and music. They may also help the children with their schoolwork. As a volunteer you may also organize tours, games, drawing classes, singing, dancing, painting and other activities that children enjoy.

A typical day at the children's home looks as follows:
      •    Assist with breakfast and getting the children off to school            in  the morning;
      •   Help out with organizing and cleaning up the house;
·     •   Assist the children with their home work after school;
·     •    Play with the children, either just games or educational;
·     •  Read with the children;
·     •  Assist with dinner and getting the children to bed;
·        In general, spend time with the children and the caregivers.
We welcome volunteers who could preferably spend at least one month with the children, so that they can get to know you, and you can get to know them.

Working in School
Volunteers will teach Health Education and sports to school
children in a school for about 4 hours each day for six days (Saturday is a day off). They will also be involved in showing and teaching their skill to students. During this period volunteers will have the opportunity to participate in local festivals and get the opportunity to exchange their culture and life style with children. Where there are most of the children will study from poor family in the government school. If you join with children you will have those chances.
