Student From Glasgow Reviews Volunteering in Ghana
STUDENT FROM GLASGOW DESCRIBES VOLUNTEERING IN GHANA AS HER ‘BEST 5 WEEKS EVER’
A student from Glasgow who volunteered at a school in Ghana described the experience as her ‘Best 5 weeks ever’.
Rebecca Jopling from Glasgow, but is studying in Edinburgh, went to volunteer at the Sunrise School in Ghana in August 2009. When asked how she had enjoyed her time there she said that she ‘loved it’, and that it was the ‘best 5 weeks ever’.
Rebecca was full of praise for the co-ordinators on the project, and Original Volunteers, saying that it was very well organized, and that Original volunteers were the cheapest volunteer company that she had discovered as well.
She made a lot of new friends that she has kept in touch with, and found the people of Ghana to be very friendly. She added that when you are walking around the Town the local people were always very excited to see you.
Rebecca, who has recommended the experience to many of her friends, hopes to go to India in the Summer to volunteer with Original volunteers again.
She added that the experience has helped her to gain a whole new perspective on life, and that she now realizes how privileged she is.
We wish Rebecca well with her studies, and look forward to arranging for her to volunteer abroad again in the Summer.
