Description:

We need volunteers who can be babysitters, teachers and play with the orphans in our orphanage in Cameroon. Our orphanage has 83 orphans between the ages of 3months to 20 years. Most of them are going to school from nursery to the university and our volunteers will take care of mostly the little kids that are not yet going to school, those going to the nursery and primary schools because the secondray school orphans can at least do certain things on their own.

You can visit the pictures I took at the orphanage by clicking the following link: http://picasaweb.google.com/penjoka/RhemaGraceOrphanage# or you can copy and paste on your browser address. In these photos you will see everything about the orphanage.

We are also looking for volunteers who can help modernize the orphanage by doing some repairs at the center like kitchen, sitting room, sleeping rooms, and drinking water facilities.

This volunteer program requires a program fee per volunteer/month. This fee will cover your lodging at the orphanage, two meals per day, airport pickup and back on your return day. And you will take care of your special needs like drinking water, taxi fare out of the orphanage to other places you might want to visit. The program fee is 400Euros/Volunteer/Month. It also includes the organization administration fee.

This orphanage is 30minutes drive from the Atlantic Ocean where you have the beach and touristic sites of Cameroon. It is also an opportunity for our volunteers to have their touristic site seeing with a guide from the orphanage.

No specific skill is needed, but anybody who loves and care for orphan children is welcome.

The volunteer position is in the South West Province 30 minutes drive away from Limbe.
