Most valuable experience of my life

When I dropped out of university to take a semester+ off, I didn’t know that I’d learn more in my time off than I had in my entire time at university. The staff at SAVE are incredibly caring, dedicated, and respected in the community. The love they have for the township and kids shows every single day. Because of their love, the volunteer experience is made better as the kids know that you come from the same loving place as the staff.

SAVE has introduced me to lifelong friends and I can’t imagine my life if I hadn’t done this. Cape Town is a beautiful city, and table view is one of the best neighborhoods I have ever spent time in. Everything you want is walking distance away, and it’s safe enough to walk where you need to go (use common sense as in any city!)

The accommodations are wonderful, and create a great sense of community amongst the volunteers. I was comfortable there after less than 2 days.
