The Experience
Hello! We are an NGO for vulnerable children. I try to provide an educational background for vulnerable children. With the help from my mother and sisters we are right now supporting 36 children and 20 of them live in our home. We need help for building, teaching, help with homework and maybe do some fundraising. It will depend on your skills and any kind of help is appreciated, we are always open toward new ideas!

I highly recommend volunteering with Joseph and the team at Ferrinadah, you feel so welcomed as soon as you arrive, and the tasks are fair and manageable. The village is a beautiful place to call home for a while, the environment and the kids are so special, you will learn a lot about the way of life and about yourself 🙏🏽 thank you!!
