I feel like I gained a huge insight
by: Sophie CunninghamProgram: Affordable Childcare Volunteering in CambodiaI feel like I gained a huge insight into the children in Cambodia, how they struggle and their living conditions - it's very sad but they still all have a huge smile on their faces. I would give the advice that it's an amazing experience and you will meet amazing people too. Working with the children everyday is something that I will treasure for ever.
The program guide was super useful
by: Marisa MeasProgram: Affordable Childcare Volunteering in CambodiaThe program guide was super useful. The local team was amazing, and so helpful. I felt so welcomed and they really helped me settle in. My experience at my placement was AMAZING.
