NKA Foundation is looking for community-spirited volunteers and gap year students from a wide-range of expertise for charity work on community arts/vernacular architecture design-build projects, teaching school children, or vocational skills training of local youths. We provide free accommodation in an arts village setting or home stay with a local family. The international participant is responsible for their own return air ticket and other personal costs. For example, meals can be by self-catering or by cooperative kitchen whereby participants contribute, fund and cook meals for the group. If proposing a project, you will have to raise the funds for that. Duration can be up to six months and may be renewed. We have two project sites in Ghana: (1) Abetenim Arts Village at Ejisu-Juaben District in the Ashanti Region, and (2) Sang Arts Village at Mion District in the Northern Region.
