Health Projects

In Ghana, efforts are underway to improve the health sector, especially the health of women and children. A high importance is placed on improving the quality of reproductive health services and on preventing and reducing the impact of widespread communicable diseases, bridging gaps that prevent efficient and effective delivery of health services, and fostering partnerships that lead to improved health in Ghana. Government and non-governmental organizations run a number of different health facilities, hospitals, maternity clinics, children's hospitals, HIV/AIDS wards, and alternative-medicine clinics in many cities and small rural villages. Rustic Volunteer Travel collaborates with these organizations to provide trained volunteers who are able to promote health education in the villages and make a difference in the health sector of Ghana.

Airport Pick-up:

Upon the receipt of your flight information, our in-country coordinator or other project staff will greet the volunteers in the airport and take you to your project site. The address and telephone number of the local contact hotel will be given before departure just in case volunteers miss our representative in the airport. Please make sure to e-mail your flight information to both the USA office and the local in-country coordinator's office.

Rarely, a few do request an escort back to the airport; this is an extra expense of about $75.  Most are very familiar and comfortable with their stay and have great ease taking their own taxi or bus back to the airport.
