MY EXPERIENCE IN ARUSHA, TANZANIA WITH KUKUA PAMOJA TANZANIA

I had a wonderful one-month volunteer experience in Arusha, Tanzania, working with Kukua Pamoja Tanzania, an NGO that runs multiple impactful programs. My focus was on the football program, where I assisted coaches in planning pitch training sessions for the kids. The players were incredibly disciplined, attentive, and eager to learn, following all instructions diligently.

The process was smooth from the start, with all arrangements made in coordination with Ayoub, the NGO's executive director. He picked me up from the hostel, introduced me to the program, and made sure I felt welcomed. My first day included a fantastic town tour, which allowed me to explore and get familiar with the area.

In the following days, I actively participated in the football activities, and everything went seamlessly. The hostel where I stayed was clean, comfortable, and friendly—thanks to the warm staff. The entire program was well-organized and meaningful, as it genuinely touched the community and made a positive impact.

Additionally, I was fortunate to be part of a five-day safari, visiting Tarangire, Manyara, Serengeti, and Ngorongoro Crater. The safari was absolutely gorgeous and unforgettable.

I highly recommend Kukua Pamoja Tanzania to anyone interested in volunteering or experiencing Tanzania. I look forward to returning in the future!

What was your funniest moment?
The funniest moment was during the farewell party with all the kids and staff. It was a lively and joyful event, full of laughter and fun activities. Seeing the kids’ excitement and the staff’s cheerful spirits made it a truly memorable and hilarious day. It definitely brought a big smile to my face!
