What?

Indonesia HOPE worldwide Volunteer Corps 2021

Join us for a two-week-long service opportunity where we will serve at the Batam orphanage (Center of Hope, COH) and its surrounding community. We will be partnering with the Batam church to plan activities so as to engage the surrounding community and build support for the work of HOPE worldwide in Batam. We’re also planning on developing an urban garden and painting specific areas in the COH to foster a warm and welcoming environment.

Why?

The HOPE worldwide Batam orphanage is fully funded by the Central Christian Church of Singapore, and volunteers have been serving for years. It would bring a time of refreshment and encouragement for the orphanage and the church to see you come and serve at such a meaningful time of year.
