Image
Childcare centers in Africa can take many different shapes and sizes. Many have children as old as 18 and as young as babies. These children are in need of educational support, care, and friendship, which local staff are often to busy to offer them on an individual basis. Your work in an orphanage care center in Africa will provide these children with the support and mental stimulation that all children need to develop healthy social skills and self-confidence. Volunteer work in African care centers can make a large impact on both you and the children themselves. We recommend going for eight weeks or more if you are doing a project that involves social work. However, some projects can accommodate volunteers for as little as one week. You can impact the lives of numerous children in Africa by donating your time and energy volunteering in a care center in  Togo .

Moving from Volunteering in Orphanages to Community-based Care

Moving from Volunteering in Orphanages to Community-based Care zoom For many years Projects Abroad has worked closely with orphanages and other residential care centers to help provide better care and support to vulnerable children. Our volunteers have made a significant impact by improving living conditions at these orphanages and creating opportunities for children through supporting their education and care. However, placing children in orphanages and residential homes should be the last resort for any child.

A Happy Family for Charlie

Image
Once again, a wonderful privilege to introduce a beautiful family to their new son . Charlie has waited in an orphanage for many years but his years of waiting are over! He is now a member in full standing of a precious American family. Although Charlie cannot hear with his ears, his heart heard and felt the love radiating from his mother and father from the first day that they met. Charlie is now in his forever home, meeting and getting acquainted with his three brothers, two older and one younger. Adoption is all about FAMILY. Charlie has been chosen and adopted into this family, with the full rights of a son, just as God has chosen us and adopted us into His family, with the full rights of His son or daughter!😊
