We have Child care volunteer opportunities in Africa, work with children in babies homes and orphanages in Uganda and Kenya, for individuals and group
Children in Africa, their struggles are many… poverty, disabilities, and even homelessness. But you can make a lasting difference in these young lives you can care for physically- and mentally-disabled children, some who have been abandoned, and “at-risk” teens.
Often no special skills are required, as volunteers are needed to listen to, play, read, and exercise and share time with the children. Many of our host babies homes, orphanages and child care projects are short-staffed and the volunteers’ attention gives the children the extra love they need.
You can also help out in these areas at an orphanage:
Group games, board games, painting and creation workshops, music, drama, dance
· Counsel and help with feeding
· Assist with bath time and dressing
· Cooking and cleaning
· Teach and encourage development through play
· Read, sing and play with the children
· Assist in the children’s developmental stages
· Help the staff, assisting with the various activities
