Community work with orphans in the Caribbean
Questions? Call us: 1-866-549-7614
Help foster community development in the Dominican Republic at this volunteer project which offers rewarding work with children in Santo Domingo. This community service project is centred on helping children overcome difficulties in their lives. Whether that is loss of parents or substance abuse, these kids all need a mentor or two. You might help them get ready for school in the mornings, lead recreational and music activities, as well as English classes. As you will be involved in some English classes we include the i-to-i TEFL course and supplemental teaching aids to give you ideas for activities.
