Kenya Children's Programme

I went with GVN to Kenya in 2012 and I have just been back for a second time (2014). I was picked up from the airport when I arrived and spent a couple of nights with a homestay during the induction. I spent a month volunteering at Shelter Children's Home. It was the most amazing month of my life, hence why I have just been back to the same orphanage a second time. GVN were amazing support while I was there and it really made for a smooth first trip to Kenya. There was always someone we could call or txt if we needed anything or wanted information. We also got taken on small outings during a few weekends and got to visit animal orphanages. I made some amazing friends from the trip and we met up socially during weekends while we were there. I was so pleased to have been placed in the amazing Shelter Children's Home and it now it my African home. I will go back as often as possible. GVN were amazing and supportive, before, during and after my trip. I highly recommend GVN to anyone wanting to volunteer.
