Volunteer Travel Kenya

Work in an Orphanage
Trip code: KEN1

Kenya has a lot of orphans who have been affected by the AIDS virus as well as poverty. There is a need to help kids who have lost their parents through the epidemic. We are presently working with more than 13 local orphanages in the different parts of the Kenya . Rustic Volunteer Travel invites enthusiastic volunteers who can provide care and support to underprivileged children in Kenya . Help is needed to improve the living conditions in the group homes and provide educational activities for the children. This is a rewarding opportunity for Rustic volunteers/travelers to work on the front lines to feed and provide assistance to these forgotten little ones.

 
Project/Volunteer's Life:

Most of the time volunteers will be teaching English and assisting the kids with creative activities such as painting, drawing, and dancing. In addition to this, volunteers help in the kitchen preparing meals, and washing dishes and clothes. Volunteers' storytelling skills will be put to good use inspiring and motivating the children.

Skills and Qualification

There is no specific qualification needed to join the orphanage volunteer project. However, volunteers are expected to be flexible and patience. You should have passion and love for orphans.

Meals/Accommodations:

Rustic Volunteer Travel manages room/food for volunteers. Volunteers live with the host family/hostel and we manage a separate/shared, simple, clean and modest room as well as local meals three times a day. Volunteer will also have an access to our office in Kenya and mobile number of our coordinators. Our staffs also visit volunteers in each 2-4 week interval as a part of the program.

Project Locations:

Orphanage projects are available in the towns of Nairobi (featuring Nairobi National Park, Safari park and National Museum of Kenya) and Mombasa (home to Fort Jesus, Mombasa Tusks, and Gedi Ruins). Kenya's multicultural metropolitan cities are renowned for its deep rooted cultural atmosphere where visitors are always welcomed. It's full of contrasts: from traditional culture and history to modern infrastructure and most of the amenities you would expect from a city. Volunteers can organize several combinations of potential excursions during and after the project to visit places of interest. There is a tourist infrastructure already in place that the volunteers can use during weekends. For example: national parks, ice rinks, markets, museums, restaurants, nightclubs, tourist villages, mausoleums, art galleries, golf courses, crocodile farms, nature trails, hotels, Bombolulu workshops and many more.
