I loved my time here so much. I felt so comfortable and connected to everyone. I completely fell in love with not only the kids but also the staff and the village. I loved every minute I got to spend with everyone. Daniel went above and beyond and made sure everything I was always comfortable and had everything I needed. He did so much for me. I honestly can't put into words or thank him enough for making my stay here so special. Leaving was actually so hard because it really started to feel like home. I already miss everyone so much and could not recommend this place more. I'll be back ❀️

We are very happy for the dedication and service sarah showed as a volunteer at Hope for AIDS Orphans charity.

During her time with our non profit ,she demonstrated exceptional compassion, commitment, and genuine concern for the children and families we serve. She consistently approached every responsibility with kindness, patience, and professionalism, making a meaningful difference in the lives of the children under our care.

We are grateful to host you! see you again!

After spending 6 weeks volunteering here, I can say it has been an incredible experience. From day one, they make you feel at home and take care of everything. You meet amazing people, the children are wonderful, and the place is comfortable and surrounded by beautiful nature. They also make everything easy, including transport and activities. This experience has given me a new perspective and made me much more grateful for what I have. Thank you all, I will remember you forever, and I'm sure we will see each other again. Truly one of the best experiences of my life.

I went with a friend and stayed there for almost 6 weeks. Daniel was super welcoming and nice host. We had our own separated bedrooms and even a living room! The kids are soy lovely and willing to be with volunteers as long as you want to. Daniel and his brothers drove us to the city and to some trips if you agree in advanced. They even let us borrow the cars so we could go on our own to enjoy our free time or go to the supermarket. I suggest to arrive with some activities or games prepared because the kids can be all day long playing with you. I will miss them so much! I recommend it!

I had the greatest experience of my life. Since I arrived I was well received, my accommodation was perfect. I've met all children and teachers and all that I got from them was a lot of love. I could live a lot of experiences that I never had before. Daniel took care of everything was good for me. He is a really nice guy and you can count on him for everything. Also, he took me to beautiful places to get to know better his country. I love everything and I wish I can come back someday. :)

Our time at the orphanage was truly unforgettable. The host was incredibly caring and always made sure we felt comfortable and supported. We experienced so many meaningful moments and joined several really fun trips. The atmosphere was warm and welcoming, and the children were absolutely wonderful. We enjoyed our stay a lot and can fully recommend this experience.
