The volunteer opportunities in our organization 1.

So we are providing affordable almost free education to the children in the communities to get them in school so that they will learn to read and write then excel to higher grades too. The volunteer (s) will teach the children at our school in basic subject with the help with the local teacher mainly English, Maths, Arts and other creative subjects.
