Volunteerism

I am thrilled to be part of UCESCO -Africa family where I have learnt alot from the experience, activities involved and the love for mankind. I have been looking for a place where I can involve myself in helping people from vulnerable communities where I finally landed here and I'm looking forward to spreading love, care and humanity to people. As a volunteer I'm happy to be in UCESCO -Africa team. Thank you.
Meeting different people of African communities and overseas is such a pleasure and waiting to enjoy the opportunities coming after.

AMAZING

I was so nervous going in because I was travelling alone but I had the best time ever. I made a bunch of friends, learned from the amazing community and culture, and boosted my resume for college. I would definitely recommend going for at least 10 days and bringing a friend or significant other, but if you decide to go alone you will still have a good experience. Elizabeth and Edna will ensure that you have an amazing trip, all while keeping you safe and happy. The people at UCESCO are truly incredible at their jobs.

If you did this all over again, what's one thing you would change?
I didn’t stay/sleep with the program because I’m underage so I was afraid, but it seems like such a amazing experience after seeing my fellow volonteers in their living quarters.
Pros
  • Make a substantial impact on an underprivileged community
  • Meeting people from all over the world
  • Going on safaris
Cons
  • Can be slightly overwhelming if you go alone
  • You need to be careful with the food to avoid food poisoning

Such an amazing experience

I went to Kenya for 3 weeks in June 2023. I taught/ helped out in primary schools in the slums. It was such a valuable experience. The staff are amazing. So helpful and really care about everyone (the community and the volunteers). The accommodation they give you are nice and clean. Breakfast and dinner are made for you. To get to the slums you can take an Uber. If you ride share with other volunteers it will be even cheaper but it’s cheap anyway. It’s a really valuable experience. I met so many amazing people and would love the chance to go again. 10/10 recommend.

Pros
  • The staff are so nice and supportive and encourage you with however you want to support the community
  • The accommodations are very nice, clean and comfortable
  • There are multiple projects ongoing so it’s completely up to you how you want to help.
Cons
  • The city can be dangerous so stick with the volunteers and staff
