Teach English to teens and young adults in school classrooms, or
care for infants in a "special needs" ward in this old-world Eastern European country.
You don't need special skills to
teach conversational English skills, or to nurture a disabled or abandoned baby. No matter the circumstances of their birth, infants, toddlers and teens understand the nurturing touch and kind words of a caring adult. Deserving children in our Romanian host communities eagerly await your help today.
Nothing says "love" like a child's smile! In Tutova, you can help feed and care for babies who arrive at the "pediatric recovery clinic" shortly after birth. Each day, volunteers stimulate, love and nurture them in a way a parent would. Just playing with these children will make a huge difference in their lives. And you will benefit from the healing smiles and warm hugs of your small charges. Physicians can also be helpful, but note: flexibility is key, as equipment and medicine are scarce throughout this country.
Volunteers may spend evenings socializing with local residents and attend folk music concerts. Weekend options include hiking the Carpathian mountains, tour the historic towns of Sinaia and Brasov, visiting the "Painted Monasteries", sunning on the Black Sea coast, or soaking in the vibrant cultural scene of Iasi or Bucharest. Free-time arrangements and costs are your responsibility.
