Orphanage Africa
This is staesa's social development initiative to provide superior care for orphans and to those kids who require alternative care due to abuse, abject poor standard of living, neglect, abandonment and death of both parents. So with this you understand the kind of children you will be working with in all our orphanages. The children are very loving, smart and intelligent. You don't want to miss this opportunity working with these children. . We try to include every child that needs our help hence we also bring children with special needs from the community to benefit from the activities in the orphanage during the day and at night these special need kids go to their various homes leaving the orphans in the orphanage. The program is attached to school teaching program in other to develop the kids academically. This is a very busy program where our volunteers and interns get very busy and feel very useful. Our program participants have direct contact with the kids and make a great difference in the communities. Addition(s) ​You can combine your program with any other program(s) of your choice upon arrival and it is free. Join us to touch lives. After successful completion of the program, you'll be given a Certificate of Completion and letter of recommendation for further studies, job application and job promotion.
