| Working in an Orphanage and with Street Children
|
Many orphanage welcomes orphaned children, disabled children and street
children. Working with limited resources, social workers and religious
support children through their development. The caregivers at the
orphanage are very appreciative of the extra help our volunteers can
offer them. Volunteers are free to teach, organize arts and crafts
or sports activities, and help out with basic chores such as feeding
the children, and folding laundry. This is a meaningful way to learn
first hand the hardships faced by most of the world's children.
