Madventurer Not-for-Profit Volunteer Community Projects

We are running our rural Community Teaching and Building projects in Ghana, Kenya, South Africa, Peru, Fiji, Thailand and India.  Get immersed into village life, help out on the building site getting your hands dirty, and split your time teaching in the village school.  You can concentrate on building project or spend more time in the school its up to you.  Teaching can be done in pairs and no previous building or teaching experience is necessary.  We will provide you with a teaching pack and our overseas crew will show you the way on the building site, along with the local tradesmen or craftsmen.  The rest is up to you, the more you put into your project the more you will get out so basically

GET STUCK IN!

Madventurer Not-for-Profit Volunteer Urban Placements

including Orphanage,

Teaching, Medic and Sports

We will also be running our more Urban Orphanage, Teaching, Medic and  Sports Coaching (Football and Netball) placements in Ghana.  You  can combine a few placements for no extra charge.   Why not help out in  the school in the morning then move to the orphanage in the afternoon, or shadow the doctors or nurses at the hospital or lab.  You can also get involved in coaching netball at the school or playing a few games of footie instead.  Just chat to your crew leader about your options and they will make a timetable to suit yours and the schools needs. 

Independent Travel at weekends

Remember weekends are free if you wish to do any independent travel as most volunteers do.  There are lots of activities to get out and involved in including jungle treks to stunning waterfalls, monkey scantuary's, long weekends to the beach, elephant treks, night markets and bazaars, white water rafting and water sports, temples and ancient ruins, artisan markets, shops, bars, canopy walks, national parks and beautiful lakes, wildlife viewing, safari's, boat trips to see the hippos the list is endless.
