An Opportunity for Genuine Service & Cultural Experiences

Despite its captivating landscape and rich culture, the nation of Ghana still relies heavily on international aid to provide basic services to its poorer citizens. Global Volunteers' works with traditional councils and educational institutions to supplement meager local resources. Global Volunteers' commitment is to support broad-based community development under the direction of local leaders ensuring that volunteer teams serve the community-at-large.

Please enjoy some of the images below which feature volunteer teams from October 2010 engaging with local chiefs and community members. Volunteering in our host communities of Akrade and Senchi Ferry truly offers participants the opportunity to provide genuine and much-needed service, as well as a chance to be welcomed and embraced by the lovely people of this region.
