The Experience

Welcome friends. Holistic child development through sports and talent development is our other priority. Through sports, children are developing self-esteem, gaining more education and have been able to be sustained is schools. At Disability Child Watch, girls and boys with disabilities are getting time to play with the able children. And this makes life easy for them. Come and join us to train both outdoor and indoor sports.

Amina and her family were so welcoming, kind, and loving! If you're looking for a family away from home, love working with kids, and want to experience a unique culture and organisation in a personal, intimate way, this is the perfect opportunity. I can't wait to visit the school and Amina's family again <3 I will note that while volunteers' help is deeply appreciated—and the experience is incredibly rewarding—financial contributions are also encouraged. It's best to come with this mindset and the means to give whatever you comfortably can. Also, be prepared for basic living conditions.

It was a good experience, Amina and her family are very welcoming and they have a good project at school, however if you're digital nomads, power and network won't work for you, so keep in mind, would also be nice to see the disable children at school.

This volunteering has been one of the best experiences of my life that I will never forget. The children are very friendly and loving, and they are always trying to help you. Amina and Rashid have been very nice to us because they have made us feel comfortable and have been very attentive to our needs. the host has been like a second family during my stay there. Thank you so much!!!

Wow, it's was really fantastic having you stay with us for that long. learning a lot from you and the love you have for the kids at school and also outreaches in the community was really voluntary with passion. Playing and singing, with the children, dancing with the children, you loved the family of disability child watch that you also prepared meals for us, sharing the cleaning and keeping the environment conducive for a healthy stay. Much love and hugs

Es una experiencia muy intensa, ya que la cultura no tiene ni punto de comparación con (en mi caso) la europea. Si pudiera dar un consejo como mujer sería venir acompañada para mayor disfrute. Mi familia ugandesa se preocupó en todo momento porque me sintiera protegida, incluida y cuidada. Agradezco mucho que siempre me acompañaran, agradecieran la labor que hice y cómo traté de dar mi mejor versión con los niños y en general. Recomiendo la experiencia porque R&A necesita seguir creciendo y aprendiendo de los voluntarios! Los niños son extraordinarios y aprenden muchísimo de nosotros🥺❤️‍🩹
