Testimonials

"This trip [to Ghana] changed my life. I realized that there’s a big world out there and I want to get to see more of it. I really appreciate things a lot more now. It was one of the best decisions I’ve ever made." More...
-- Sarah Platt (Florida)

"My month in Cuenca, Ecuador was irreplaceable. The shelter, Casa de Maria Amor, opened my eyes to what these women go through daily, and how strong in personality they have become." More...
-- Danielle (British Columbia)

"I also want to give a huge thanks to everyone at Cosmic Volunteers. It couldn’t have been possible (obviously) without your help. And to Scott, thank you also, for taking my phone calls even when I was stressing. :]. So all in all, it was absolutely wonderful. It meant so much to me and I truly will never forget my time in Ghana. And actually, I’m hoping to be returning to you all next summer with my sister! More...

Zoe Patterson (Ireland)
Orphanage Volunteer in Accra, Ghana.

Just a quick email to say I'm having a great time here in Ghana. The host family are just wonderful! I didn't actually think it was possible to PUT ON weight in Africa, but there you go, you learn something new every day.

The heat is still taking some getting used to and I seem to be taking regular naps after working in the orphanage. I have met another Cosmic Volunteer there, young Anna from the States. I've made some really great friends and am 'embracing' the Ghanaian way (e.g I can now eat very well just using my hands!).

My Coordinator Mr. Donkah has been an excellent guide, taking time off to show me the sights and the ways of Ghana. Definitely eased me into this Ghanaian way of life! Thank you!

Thanks for accepting me on this programme.

 

   

"...And that is the best thing about being a volunteer. Having the ABSOLUTE privilege of meeting and featuring in the lives of kids who are soldiers with huge hearts, big smiles and endless love. [Vietnam] has been an experience and an honour that I will never forget." More...
-- Christie (UK)

"All in all, this has already been an incredible experience for me, getting to experience life in a different country while doing something I love and am passionate about [basketball coaching]. So I can't thank you and your organization enough."
-- Bryan (Oregon)

"[My daughter Dalia] loved Ecuador and the people, saw a lot of sites, managed to make friends and connections there and above all she really loved working with the kids at the orphanage and said they were very sweet and loving. I think it was a great experience for her in terms of helping her develop independence and self-confidence and turning her on to other cultures and travel." More...
-- Laurence (Philadelphia)
