Program Description

Volunteering in South Africa

Description

The project offers you an opportunity to surround yourself with children of all ages. They need your love, dedication and emotional support. You can make a difference by helping overworked employees to provide emotional support and basic care such as arranging outings, playing games and preparing food. The children suffer from neglect, abuse, lack of affection, and the anxiety of separation and abandonment. The staff and volunteers aim to provide a nurturing and healthy environment where the children can grow intellectually, physically, emotionally and socially.
