VOLUNTEER OPPORTUNITIES IN CAPE COAST, GHANA WITH FIRST INTERVENTION GHANA
First Intervention Ghana (FIG) is a Ghanaian based health and community voluntary non profit organization which develops short and long term volunteer programs in rural communities that encourage people to immerse themselves in a unique way of giving back. Volunteers help to empower the host communities in creating renewable, sustainable programs.
While FIG’s financial assistance benefits the community economically, it is actually the involvement and collaboration between the volunteers and community that is the greatest mutual benefit FIG is an organization which focuses on creating self-reliance among the rural communities with which we work.
Every activity in which we engage is intended to accomplish one of two things: promote cultural awareness and/or promote sustainability. The concept of sustainability is to help others stand on their own feet; to teach skills to others.
The Cross Culture and Education Service Program was founded on the principles of
- Immersion
- Education
- Cultural exchange
- Service and reflection.
Under these principles, the program strives to accomplish two principal objectives.
- Create a wide variety of learning opportunities for student/volunteer interns.
- They will better understand diverse cultures and develop intercultural skills.
They will be able to integrate academic interests in service work. And they will nurture a life of self-examination and reflection.
