My time with the organization was definitely memorable. I had a ton of fun helping out with various ongoing projects. I spent the first week at Chrystal Children's Center where I did basic household tasks, taught and played with the kids. The second week I worked on the farm where I took care of the animals. The overall the organization with David's family was lovely! One thing to note is that the volunteering fee was a little bit more than what was indicated on the worldpackers posting, but nonetheless, it was still a great experience!

I had an absolutely amazing experience volunteering in the organization! Out of all the places I've volunteered before, the organization truly felt like home to me. I wish I could have stayed longer because David, his family, and the program staff were incredibly kind and welcoming. They made sure I felt comfortable both at the house and at my assignment location. Teaching, nurturing, and loving the children was an absolute honor. I am grateful for the opportunity to have made a positive impact and create lasting memories in the organization.

My experience with the organization was incredible, I have no words to describe how much this experience was worth in my life, the children are charming and very kind and all the staff very friendly and helpful. It was all excellent.

This experience was a real eye opener. Interaction with the kids at the orphanage made me realize&appreciate how much privilege I have. You should expect to be blown away. You might even shed a tear or two when you meet the kids and hear their stories(I did😢). The world is truly a cruel place for the innocents. As to be expected, the orphanage has alot of financial needs, i wish I could do more for them financially, but we can only do so much as the organization. The host and his family were very accommodating. There was hot shower. The meals were delicious It felt like a home away from home.
