Programs

There are numerous programs for volunteers both in rural and urban areas that empower individuals to be agents of change, reach out and involve community members in their own initiatives. Our volunteering opportunities in Kenya are in the areas of Education and training for children from under-privileged families, orphanages and care centres, health care and HIV/AIDS education and counselling.

If you are looking for teaching opportunity in schools or medical internship in hospitals, we offer very unique and customized opportunities for a lifetime internship experience in Kenya. The projects we offer can be under taken on either long term or short term goals and focus on traditional education, social education and community development.

Children Program in Orphanages: Working in an orphanage in Kenya is an opportunity to make an input and create hope in the lives of orphans, destitute and youth who live in extreme poverty. This program is designed to create an atmosphere where orphaned children can experience the fun and excitement of learning and feel part of the fortunate world to offer them the hope in life.

HIV/AIDS Program: The HIV epidemic is currently the leading of death in Africa. Despite Government and other relevant NGO's intervention, the rate of HIV infection in many communities is still raising especially those who live around the shores of Victoria and urban centres. Many people infected particularly in the local communities still do not know how to prevent infection, and even very few people know how to deal with the virus once they have it. 

Medical/Health Program: Women and children continue to suffer due to lack of proper medical care and shortage of doctors, nurses and social workers in the hospitals in the rural areas. Access to basic healthcare is often one of the most challenging issues that low-income and neglected populations face. Community level intervention and local health clinics offer services to local families at minimal or no cost.

Teaching in Local Schools: This is a great opportunity to gain first-hand experience in teaching if you are considering the same as your future career. It gives volunteers an opportunity to share their talents of teaching profession to impart the same knowledge acquired in their areas of specialization. You will also gain experience within the culture and work environment.

Youth Program: If you have a love for sports and a little sporting ability, then you could play an important part in the personal development of young Kenyan men and women who are interested in sports. Our sports programs allow the volunteer opportunities to coach soccer (football), basketball, net ball and volleyball. 

Environmental Conservation: Proper perception of our environment is our top priority. Our livelihood is wholly dependent on the environment and for us to get the resources that are needed to sustain life; we should make the environment be healthy and natural.

VolunTravel in Kenya: For volunteer travellers who want to indulge deeper into the real culture of Kenya, you will work a long side with the local community on various projects and really make a difference while experiencing an adventure holiday for a rewarding break.
