This journey will offer:
- Immersion in rural villages ravaged by HIV/AIDS, poverty, and illiteracy.
- An opportunity to become engaged with a very different culture thereby encouraging the development of cultural competence.
- Interaction with children who are dealing with the grief of losing their parents while, often times, also dealing with the burden of raising their younger brothers and sisters.
- A means of experiencing the dramatic beauty of a country that has not been affected by pollution and industrialization.
- An opportunity to teach at rural, impoverished, and poorly resourced primary and secondary schools.
- Hands-on experiences at HIV clinics, African NGOs, schools, child-headed homes, and much more!
- After the trip, you will be encouraged to attend GHFP events and remain involved as an Ambassador for the orphans.
