About Program
At Projects Abroad we’re passionate about travel with a purpose. Since being founded in 1992, more than 120,000 volunteers and interns have traveled to Kenya and 20+ other destinations around the world.
Come and support teachers and promote early childhood development, or take part in community outreaches on our medical internships. You can also get involved in vital conservation work, conducting research on the critically endangered Rothschild’s Giraffe.
Wildlife safaris are probably Kenya’s most famous tourist activity, so don’t miss out on the chance to see lions, rhinos, and buffalo in their natural habitat. Hiking opportunities abound, and adventurous souls can challenge themselves summiting Mount Kenya.
