Working place
The kind of work you are going to do depend on your experience, motivation and educational background. LABFoGh co-operates with several projects where enthusiastic and suitable volunteers are welcome and needed.
Host family
LABFoGh not only attempts to find an appropriate and suitable working place, but also arranges your accommodation in a host family. You are given the opportunity to make acquaintance of the rich Ghanaian culture and its habits and experience Ghanaian life and cuisine. Breakfast and supper are included in your program fee. Through living with a typical Ghanaian family you have the great chance to taste all aspects of Ghanaian life, but also will have a new temporal ‘home’.
Introduction and coaching
A good preparation and coaching are very important. Realising you are going to a developing country and the circumstances will be completely different compared to the Netherlands (Western Europe or America). At our website you can find a lot of information which is necessary for a good preparation. Besides this, the team of LABFoGH s is always ready for you with tips and advice via LABFoGh@gmail.com, lamalbashirfoundationghana@yahoo.com
