General Impression
Overall Rating:
/ 10I have recently returned from 4 weeks of volunteering in schools in the village of Domeabra, Ghana. It was truly an experience of a lifetime. I fell in love with Ghana, particularly Domeabra, and the people there are the friendliest and most welcoming people I have ever met.I really enjoyed being at the schools - the children were a delight and wanted to learn. The teachers do an exceptional job under very difficult conditions. They are all in desperate need of resources, including books, stationery and computers. I would encourage anybody who is able to do so, to support these schools either in kind or money. I can guarantee that whatever is given will go to those who need it. Sally and her team do a lot of wonderful work for the youth of their region, giving so much of their own time and resources.
As a volunteer I couldn't have chosen a better organisation than Love Volunteers who made my planning and preparation so quick and easy, and who were always there with support if it had been necessary. They partnered me with an exceptional organisation. They made sure I had all the support I needed, went out of their way to help me experience the culture and meet so many people (I have so many new friends for life!) , and also to have lots of fun. If you are thinking about volunteering, go with Love Volunteers to Ghana - you will have the time of your life and have the satisfaction of knowing that you have made a difference in the life of the needy children of Ghana.
