You2Africa's mission is dedicated to improving the lives of children and animals in South Africa. By offering volunteer programs we help communities develop and 30% of our funds are given to the organisations we work with.
We have over 12 years experience in volunteer and high school exchange programs in South Africa. Over 3000 volunteers and 1500 high school students have passed through our doors in this time, with each year our involvement and progress grows in the communities we are involved in.
We are a small organisation that gives back to the projects we are involved in because we are firmly driven by our desire to make a difference in the projects & schools. We want to connect you to Africa, the projects and the communities you will be involved in and facilitate an experience that may well change your life forever. Volunteering provides a sustainable platform, in the absence of funding to make a meaningful difference and to show people, less fortunate than ourselves – that we care. We build humility and gratitude, rather than arrogance and demands, and we welcome anyone with open arms to come help us build a healthy, happy, peaceful South Africa.
Volunteers are hosted in a safe, happy and established environment, a home from home – where they can discover the beauty and challenges of living in South Africa and walk away with a rich experience, which they will carry through life. We work with a team of people around the city and the country, coordinators and facilitators, below is short descriptions of the 'core' You2Africa team…
