You can contribute toward this important development work during a gap year or career break, or as a worthwhile way to spend a vacation. Energy, passion, and commitment to the work at hand are all that you need.
You will be helping teach children in the local community with a partner school under the supervision of train Ghanaian staff how to read and write, your participation will really benefit the children you work with, while gaining valuable skills yourself. Teaching in community schools with limited resources provides an engaging environment for educating children and teenagers.
