About Program

If you are looking to take part in a challenging and worthwhile programme on your gap year, this is the perfect program for you.

Based in a children's village in the Rift Valley in Tanzania, you will work alongside a team of dedicated volunteers dedicated to providing a permanent home for nearly 100 local children. Your main role will be to lead fun activities. to teach English and to help with the day-to-day care of the children.

You will live with other volunteers in private, shared accommodation in the village. You will have access to a western bathroom and a communal area to relax in the evenings. You will be well supported by our team before departure and throughout your time in Tanzania.

Surrounded by beautiful scenery, this is a fantastic project for people looking to experience real Tanzanian culture. You will have Sundays free and most volunteers use this time to relax at the local safari lodges or to shop in Karatu - a great way to get to know the area and the team!

Impact

Sustainability

Oyster Worldwide is passionate about the importance of responsible travel. We want our projects to fit in with the local way of life, without having a negative impact on the environment, culture or economy. This means that we will only send participants to places where there is a real need and where we have been asked to work. Once there, they should fit in with the community, respecting their way of life and supporting, rather than taking, local jobs.
