Description:
Thousands of Nepali children are orphans, and the numbers have been rising in recent years. ELI has been working closely with a few orphanages in the Kathmandu Valley. ELI Orphanage Volunteers work as activity coordinators: Playing with the children, mentoring, coordinating games, teaching an English or art class, and giving these children some much needed attention. The children range in age from toddlers to teenagers. This is a great placement for an independent, up-beat volunteer who likes to have fun and wants to make a difference in the lives of little ones!
