"If an award were given for the country with the friendliest people in West Africa, Ghana would be a strong contender."
- Lonely PlanetCommunity Service
Volunteering in Ghana will allow you to immerse yourself in a country that is full of the traditions of West African culture.
At the heart of this culture lies a strong sense of family and cultural roots and an appreciation for taking a moment to visit with others. You'll quickly adopt an open and laid-back attitude that will allow you to really form connections with the people of the community.
GLA students volunteer in economically underprivileged communities doing non-formal educational activities such as arts & crafts, sports, and English teaching with children with the following types of community service organizations:
- schools
- daycare centers
- orphanages
