| Project/Volunteer's Life: |
Volunteers take care of HIV/AIDS infected kids and people and help engage them in educational and training activities geared to increase awareness and stop the epidemic of HIV/AIDS in Tanzania . Volunteers act as support for counseling and education programs of hospitals and communities. You will help to raise personal risk perception among the youth, men and women by involving them to actively participate in HIV/AIDS preventive education. Your help is also expected in outreach programs such as hospice care, recreational and educational programs, voluntary HIV counseling and testing, and educational seminars and conferences on the virus within the local community |

| Project Locations: |
Tanzania HIV/AIDS projects are available in Dar es Salaam (home to Kaole Ruins, Botanic Gardens and Dar es Salaam Marine Reserve), Moshi (Ngorongoro Conservation Area, Lake Manyara National Park) and Arusha (close to Serengeti, Mount Kilimanjaro and Great Rift Valley). Tanzania is renowned for its beautiful natural landscapes and its fused African culture with more than 120 different ethnic groups. Tanzania is full of distinction; from it rural traditional culture and history to its modern infrastructure and amenities you would expect from any 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 & harbors, snorkeling, markets, museums, restaurants, nightclubs, gardens, waterfalls, mountains, Eco Tours, craters beaches, hotels, and many more.
