There is a great infant massage organization in Oregon. International Loving Touch Foundation.  Diana Moore is the founder/owner and is part of a great team called Northwest Medical Teams.  They, as a team, go to underprivileged orphanages in foreign countries to volunteer (2 weeks at a time, I believe) to assist in developing massage programs and address various needs.  They take a variety of specialties from MD's, RN's and others to PT's, OT's and ST's.  It is a group of medical professionals and I believe it is Christian based.  The foundations website is www.lovingtouch.com.  If interested email Diana and ask for info.

Hi,
My name is Tanya and I am looking for a volunteer experience at on orphanage.  I recently did a thesis project on sensory issues children in orphanages may have and now I would like to volunteer and research this area further.  Last year I was suppose to go to Romania, but the country stopped international adoptions and we were unable to go, so now I am looking for an opportunity like this to come by again.  So far I have not had very good luck  If any of you know of a connection or organization that does volunteer work at orphanages please let me know.
Thank you,
Tanya
