Volunteers in Kenya

Do you want to work in one of Africa’s most beautiful countries, making a difference in the lives of ex-street children? Then why not volunteer in Kenya? See why every year thousands of tourists are drawn to Kenya, a country famous for its colourful culture and tribal history. We enable you to make a valuable contribution to Kenyan society, whilst gaining the opportunity to experience African culture at its best.

You can be involved in a variety of projects – you could find yourself helping at an educational centre for street children between the ages of 5 and 17 to the north of Mombasa. Here you have the chance to offer pupils one-to-one support or organise outdoor sports, and much more.

You could also be helping with meal times, playing with the children, reading bedtime stories, creating activities, teaching English or basic maths. By volunteering, you will be filling an important role in the lives of these children…as well as assisting the hardworking staff.

No previous teaching experience is required and you will find working with these children very rewarding. Even a simple story at bedtime means a lot to these dear little ones. Use your own creative ideas to make a difference in the lives of these African children and be rewarded as you see their smiles and watch them develop into happy, healthy children.

Some volunteers get involved with working with street children, or on farm projects associated with the same organisation. If you enjoy being outdoors this could be the project for you!

During your free time the beach is not far away and the beautiful old streets of Mombasa old town are well worth a visit. Kenya has something for everyone – that is why it is such a popular holiday destination!

Come and volunteer in Kenya for a rich, rewarding experience which will greatly impact both you and the children. You will never be the same again – guaranteed!
