2017 East Asia Orphanage 1

WHEN
Jun 2 2017 - Jun 11 2017
WHERE
East Asia, IO
COST
$3,500.00

Team members will work with our partners to serve in an orphanage that cares for children (3–18 years old) with disablities. The children develop their mental and physical motor skills through curriculum, arts, crafts, and therapy in conjunction with the teachers in the facility. Team members will strive to provide innovative teaching and therapy ideas to stimulate the children and the teachers, as well as encourage the local church.

We need a team of eight people willing to love, learn, and serve. Experience working with children with special needs in the areas of occupational therapy, physical therapy, and special education is a plus.
