"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...

Amy Dodgson and Jillian Ramsden (UK)
Nursing Volunteers in Limuru, Kenya

We are two student nurses from England and have just spent a month at Tigoni sub District hospital. We chose Kenya so as we could experience health provision within a developing country.

We have thoroughly enjoyed our time here, all the staff and the matron have been friendly and accommodating to our learning needs. We have spent time on both paediatric and maternity wards and have delivered three babies [under supervision] which was one of the highlights during our time here.

The placement organizers tailor made a program to our requirements involving our safety the moment we arrived in Kenya. Our host family opened up their home and allowed us to experience the Kenyan culture. The Program Coordinator also arranged a four day safari to Maasai Mara for an additional charge. We also had time and opportunity to visit Mombasa and Nairobi.

The whole experience has opened our eyes to the needs of others and will remain with us forever. We have had a chance to meet other volunteers from different countries and shared experiences with each other.

We highly recommend both Cosmic Volunteers and the hospital.

   

"...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...

"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)
