What can you to do help as a volunteer ?
The children need a lot of assistance. The volunteers can choose the functions they prefer or for which they are more suited in consultation with the director of the center. For example you can help the children with their education: teach them English, mathematical tasks, art, etc, or if you prefer you can help with the care of the youngest ones, or simply play with them, because they are children and need a lot of love which they don't receive much of.
You will never forget the smiles on the faces of these people. The children will thank you deeply for your support.
