About Program
Be part of African Impact's meaningful volunteer program in the heart of Zambia.

Contribute to the team's effort and initiatives on clinic support, home-based care, health talks, and HIV education workshops, thus making a difference on the lives of those living in traditional rural villages.
Discover the beauty of the iconic Livingstone - the ultimate playground for wildlife enthusiasts, adventure-seekers, and lovers of the great outdoors - as you make an impact on people lives with your valuable volunteer adventure.

Program Impact
CLINIC SUPPORT
Clinics of the public healthcare system in Zambia are overrun with patients yet understaffed, and have limited medical equipment. Volunteers will have the opportunity to be involved in various departments & assist the local staff in providing patient care.
HEALTH EDUCATION
Make a meaningful contribution during health talks at local schools, support groups, & training centers by discussing relevant health issues. Help facilitate workshops with community members which are vital to increase awareness of individuals & motivate community members to make healthy lifestyle choices within the context of their environment.
AFTERNOON ACTIVITIES
Volunteers have the chance work with a range of different community members on development projects and make an even greater impact on the ground thru fun, motivating, and engaging afternoon activities.
HOME-BASED CARE
Volunteers will have the opportunity to walk through local communities offering home-based care to people who need treatment especially to many people living in the poorer communities of Livingstone. These people do not have the means to visit a clinic or hospital thus could only rely on home-based carers to deliver basic medical aid.
