Orphanage Care Volunteer and Internship Program in Cambodia, Asia

Cambodia children are still recovering from years of violence and corruption. GSC volunteers that choose to work with the Orphanage Care Program will partner with local orphanages that not only provide food and shelter, but also serve as a nurturing environment in which children can grow and thrive. Volunteers will assist with the daily activities of the orphanage, but will also focus on helping with the English education programs which are a common feature of Cambodian orphanages. While there is a need for technical assistance, participants will also serve as mentors to children who will value the guidance and their newfound friendships.
