RisingSun Volunteers is an NGO based in Teshie Nungua, a community in Accra. The founders of this NGO have been working with volunteer organisations for many years and reside all over the world, including Germany, Denmark, the UK, and of course, locally in Ghana. Having accumulated extensive experience through years of travel and collaboration with interns and volunteers, we bring valuable insights to the establishment of our own volunteer organisation. Our team is very friendly, and with our vast experience in welcoming volunteers to Ghana, you are assured of having the best time with us.

Medical healthcare is a basic human right, and ensuring access for all is essential. The hospitals and clinics we work with strive to meet this need and can always benefit from additional support.
