Volunteer in Ghana 🇬🇭
Atlas Volunteers offers volunteering programs within Abetifi of the Eastern Region and Cape Three Points of the Western Region of Ghana. Our programs are operated by our flagship award winning NGO, where the Atlas journey began with the vision of creating meaningful, affordable volunteering programs whilst helping the rural communities we volunteered in ourselves.
We arrange meaningful, affordable volunteer programs helping out on; Education, Environmental Protection, Sea Turtle Conservation, Sports & Community Development.
Ghana is often referred to as Africa for beginners. It offers the perfect mix of independent adventure off the beaten track surrounded by friendly faces.
We believe that every volunteer trip should be a special experience and personalised to each volunteer so our Ghana program fees cover the basic needs of your stay. We will then work with you to tailor your trip to ensure a balanced impact and affordability.
