We value the time and skills volunteers bring to our projects, it is because of these inspiring individuals that our progress as raised from. We feel that if someone offers you something, give them one in return and so our way of giving back to our volunteers is by letting them stay free so that they can offer their time, skills and share their love with our children freely! no stress, lets embrace giving back to each other.
So you are very welcome to join our project as a volunteer in Uganda. We will be very delighted hosting and working with you, Of course you can help so much at the orphanage with taking care of the home needs like cooking, cleaning, supervising the children and also help wih teaching at our school which is attached to the orphanage, these children will be there with you, play with you, speak with you and help you all the time that you need help around here. Or you can also join on a farm and offer your hands on experience or gain some skils in farming. You have to open yourself to them and they will feel your love towards them endlessly.
