Our Projects & Internships

Social Work Internships

Sports Development

Volunteers can assist with a community sporting program during the school holidays and after school hours. This is held at the local community field and is a way to bring the community together and teach sporting and athletic skills that the local children would otherwise not learn.

Community Youth Sports

Sport is an amazing way of bringing people from different backgrounds and cultures together. It is not confined by boundaries or borders, it is not discriminatory, nor is it judgmental.

Sports Coaching

Volunteers with a love of sport and real enthusiasm for working with children are well suited to our Sports Teaching project in Ghana. Volunteers on this project work with young children and occasionally older Ghanaians to help develop their interest in a range of sports and increase their skill base.
