Program Details

Education is the key to hope for children striving to break free from the cycle of poverty and hardship. Our community has a growing number of eager children, yet the current classrooms are unsafe and uncomfortable, putting their health and learning at risk.
Immediate action is needed to renovate these classrooms and provide a safe, conducive space for learning. Each renovated classroom has the power to transform countless lives, offering orphaned, abandoned, and underprivileged children a place to learn, grow, and dream.


Activities & Shift


Volunteers will help with classroom renovation, painting, furniture assembly, and organizing learning materials. They will also assist in supervising children during educational and creative activities.
Morning Shift: 8:00 am – 12:00 pm
Afternoon Shift: 1:00 pm – 5:00 pm
Volunteers can choose to participate in one or both shifts, depending on availability.
