This volunteer program offered by Kilimanjaro Volunteers places you in Tanzania, where you will work in an orphanage and assist in caring for kids and teens. They have lost their parents due to various reasons, including accidents and deadly diseases (i.e. HIV/AIDS). The placement is within a local community, in an orphanage where you will help with daily activities and educate widows, youth, and people living with HIV/AIDS. You will contribute to our efforts in educating locals on how to take care of themselves. Together with other volunteers, you will also visit homes and teach households – especially those dealing with HIV/AIDS – about health issues. If you are caring, motivated, and open-minded, you will fit into our team perfectly.
