Program Impact
You will have the opportunity to volunteer with a number of local community-based organizations and personnel, including orphanages, churches, home-based care workers, social workers, hospitals, health center dispensaries, community centers, and schools.
Our programs provide opportunity to develop new skills and build on existing experience and knowledge, and assistance to those in need in a manner that encourages them to become self-sustaining (our greatest desire is that those that we help will eventually be able to help themselves and others). If you volunteer with us, you will be working on projects that will enable Kenyans to help themselves well after your departure from Kenya
We guarantee security and safety to our volunteers during their stay in Kenya by providing a social worker to accompany a volunteer throughout the volunteering period.
