Ghana is located in western Africa, with warm and friendly people to welcome and greet volunteers to Ghana. If an award were given for the country with the friendliest people in West Africa, Ghana would be a strong contender. Ghana is rich in both cultural and natural heritage. Ghanaians are proud of their heritage and are striving hard to achieve a better life. There is a lot to see and do in Ghana, but the fact that their people and their friendliness will linger on in your minds after you have left this incredible country!

Today, Ghana is one of the first destinations several tourists to Africa want to visit. With an average of over 300,000 visitors each year recorded in the mid-nineties, the developing tourism infrastructure and investment opportunities are attracting more visitors into the country with a record number of nearly half a million in 2005. A lot of these people are volunteers, who are going to Ghana to help in various different ways. Volunteering Solutions provides various volunteer work options in Ghana. Volunteers can teach English, volunteer in an orphanage, work in HIV/AIDS volunteer programs, volunteer in health clinics, development projects, volunteers in sports programs and also in journalism which are available on request.

Our volunteer programs in Ghana take place in various different locations Accra, Volta, Tamale and Kumasi.
