Fantastic Volunteering Opportunities in Ghana

Are you looking for a unique experience for your gap year or time out?
Do you want to make a real difference to others less fortunate than yourself?

Kwahu Tafo is a small community located in Ghana, West Africa and home to the Ultimate Volunteer Organisation. We have several projects within Tafo, including a football academy, a cultural centre and our newly opened school.

In total, we feed and provide accommodation for 50 children and sponsor almost 100 to attend school. We are making a real difference in educating the children of our community, ensuring they have a happy childhood and bright future.

As a volunteer with us you will have several roles and opportunities. You can teach in our school, work in the football academy or cultural centre and even help in the local health clinic. There is no pressure but we encourage active participation - where you help depends on your own personal skills and interests. There are also opportunities to get involved with the administrative and structural side for longer term volunteers.

As you may know, there are many ‘volunteer projects’ around the world so listed here are the reasons we are the best


- Our project is very small with no help from the government or outside agencies, you will be making a real difference.
- The project we have is extremely welcoming and grateful to have your help. You will find Ghana an extremely accommodating and friendly country.
- The costs for yourself are very reasonable compared to similar projects, you will be expected to cover your own costs and make a small donation
- The projects offer great variation, especially if you love sport and/ or culture and performing arts.

Weve had 20 volunteers through 2009, all having a great experience. You will be free to chat to past and present volunteers for a closer insight to help with your decision.
