This is my 2nd time here. This time I came back to start an infirmary in the school compound. I really loved the project and Andrew's dedication, keeping open mind, readiness to listen volunteers' suggestions to improve conditions. He is a good planner, respectful and kind person. Whole team are kind, including teachers. I will stay 2 more months because I believe, with Andrew's willingness I may cobtribute more than I expected.

An amazing experience over 5 weeks with the foundation! Andrew is doing his best to improve educational conditions and resources for the children, who are all adorable and very curious ☺️ To spend time with the kids, have fun, and learn, BCH is the place to be! As for life outside of school, you can count on them to take you on local excursions and help you discover more of the organization! A big thank you to Andrew and his whole family for being so welcoming and making us feel at home, and a huge thanks to Vane for taking such good care of us 🥰 A thousand thanks for this wonderful experience❤️

I am really impressed by Andrew's dedication and his future plans for the project. Also I am very grateful him being very thoughtful and gentle during my stay. His family members are always around and made sure I am alright. Children are amazing, lovely. I can't express myself, but this is what I think and plan: If I have enough funds and time I will come back. I wish this project will grow and help the future of all these children. Thank you so much Andrew and your family. You have been a great host.

The most amazing people and place. Andrew and his family will look after you well and make you feel right at home! The kids in the school are so wonderful too. It was really great to be able to fundraise for the new classroom being built. The school needs a lot of help so I highly recommend going to volunteer!

I spent two weeks with this organisation and it was a fantastic experience, that I would recommend! Andrew and his family are friendly, they made us feel at home and provided what we needed. The school is well organised and the environment fantastic, you can feel all the work the association has done and continues to do. The children are fantastic and receive a good education. I bonded so much with them! I always felt safe and completely immersed in this fantastic culture. Andrew took us to the market and we went for walks! I will definitely come back and recommend it! Asante sana the organization!

I spent two weeks here, I loved it! The house has all the basic comforts, clean, organised and safe. The meals were plentiful and good. I felt really welcomed by the family, we had good time dancing, laughing and so on. The school is well structured, new classrooms are being built. My teacher is very dedicated, the activities proposed to the children were efficient for their age. The kids were full of love, we spent our breaks playing. The older ones were very interactive and I bonded a lot with those living at school as we often spent free time together. I enjoyed it and I want to come back

Andrew was incredibly accommodating with my schedule and is both friendly and insightful. His family was warm and welcoming, and the kids brought so much joy. Real change is happening here, and every volunteer makes a difference. Progress is visible, even for short stays. The community is kind and open, offering a great chance to learn about local culture. Being with the kids, talking with locals, and enjoying nature made the experience both meaningful and relaxing. Overall, it was a wonderful experience, and I'll definitely return!

Volunteering at Blessed Children's Hope Foundation was my first experience as a volunteer on Worldpackers, and it couldn't have been better! The most important thing is that I felt super welcomed by Andrew's family at home, they provided everything necessary, and they are always there if you need anything, so soon it became like a second home on the other side of the world. 🥰 Then there are the kids at school, I love them so much, they are sweet and curious to get to know you, and even if sometimes it's not very easy to teach them in class, at the end they are happy to learn with you!

The time at the organization was an incredibly enriching experience. I learned so much about the culture and the way people live there. Unfortunately, during the first week, I didn't have the support of a teacher, so I had to improvise. In the second week, the teacher was there, and I was able to provide assistance during the lessons. The children are all so kind, open-hearted, and absolutely endearing. On our days off, we took small trips to the market and other places. Andrew and his family is very friendly and welcoming. We had our own room and bathroom, and there was always plenty of food.
