Our Generation Voluntary Organisation

My trip with OGVO was by far my favorite experience yet. The program did a fantastic job of taking care of every single need or want, always working to make my experience that much better. My internship in a diagnostic lab was well organized and adaptable to my interests, and the members of OGVO were incredibly flexible in working around different hours based on what I wanted to work on. Communication was easy and reliable. My host family stay was extremely welcoming and fun, and I had the chance to befriend wonderful roommates. Everyone within the organization, and within Ghana in general, was extremely kind, and I made excellent connections with many different people. Accommodations were great, and every need was met and solved quickly. The weekend excursions were also a wonderful break from the week and a chance to get the tourist side of Ghana. While it takes a moment to adjust after all the travel, in the end, I was well cared for, entertained, and able to engage closely in what I was passionate about. I had a life-changing trip with OGVO, and I do not think it would have ever been the same with a different organization. Thank you, OGVO!!

My experience volunteering through ogvo was very rewarding in Ghana. The coordinators were very efficient in getting me started on time. The found me the right opportunity in mental health services in Kumasi. I also had quite a rewarding staff and patient encounters at the hospital. Mr Frank always checked in to make sure everything is going as expected. Their fees are super affordable compared to other organizations in the region.

My project was very suitable and precisely what I wanted to do. I felt that the placement and my time with my program was very important and was extremely appreciated! I actually found the living arrangements, meals, and hosts exceptional and exceeded my expectations. I was not disappointed but thought I would be living in many different conditions, but was not disappointed in any sense. I have been pushing my friends and family to try this program since my arrival back home. I must confess that OGVO did well organizing my internship program. I'm grateful to all the midwives, doctors and nurses at the hospital. Truly, OGVO is the best organization to travel with and I will recommend all participants to travel with them if only they are going to Ghana.
