A Broader View has partnered with licensed, vetted, established childcare programs that provide children with good quality food, housing, education, and healthcare. Many of these children have been abandoned or have been rescued from a life of child labor. Some children have lost their parents to disease or drug abuse or mental illness, leaving them vulnerable and without proper support.
Volunteering with children is a rewarding but challenging volunteer abroad experience. All volunteers are carefully chosen, fully screened and should have some experience working with youth. We encourage long term commitments for all our childcare programs, although short term options are available in daycare facilities, afterschool children’s programs, and temporary shelters for children.
Volunteers should see themselves as mentors, trainers and the role of a counselor when working with overseas children. Aside from helping with the daily upkeep at the children’s centers volunteers help in several ways including::
While part of our A Broader View program working with children you will have the opportunity to learn a new culture from inside out. Working with children from impoverished backgrounds to provide adequate care and support. Live with a local host family and explore the day to day life in your host community.
The children in these orphanages may have been alone for a very long time and the level of care that you provide to them is genuinely all they are likely to receive. You can definitely be a voice of love and kindness in their lives and this could make a huge difference for them forever.

A hug and a smile provide meaning to the life of kids who had grown up deprived of love and care. Male and female volunteers are needed as big Brothers and Big Sisters. Volunteers are asked to provide basic English education, promote health and hygienic habits, organize recreational games and sports lessons and assist the staff in counseling the children. In these projects, you could find yourself painting, changing diapers, organizing a soccer game, washing or cooking for the kids, or simply leading a sing a long. Bring as many board games, cards, soccer/tennis/volleyball balls, you can make small parties for the children with cakes, sodas, candies to celebrate birthdays.
