Volunteering and spending time with the children at the project was one of the most profound and precious experiences I've had in my life. the project has dedicated her life to the wellbeing of every child welcomed into the orphanage, providing them with much more than just a roof, but primarily a home, a family, and love. Helping with my time, content creation, and attracting new donations was very little in return for all the life lessons and love I received back. I highly recommend this experience to who has a desire to volunteer in an NGO with children, I definitely will go back.
