With us, you have the opportunity to support a project for children and young adults with various impairments. Unfortunately, these people still face many challenges in Tanzanian society: stigmatization and prejudices are omnipresent and government support is insufficient. A large number of disabled children and young adults are not adequately cared for. We want to change that!
In Tanzania, around 4 million children under 14 do not have access to adequate care. As a volunteer, you can get involved in institutions that counteract this. Volunteering placements are possible for anyone interested in motivated, as well as internships, for instance for students of social work or education.
The mostly single women and mothers in our projects come from difficult living conditions characterised by domestic violence and stigmatisation by Tanzanian society due to HIV/AIDS. We support the women with various initiatives so that they can find their way back to an independent and self-reliant life.
The everyday life of many South Africans is influenced by poverty, malnutrition, lack of the access to medical care and education, violence and drug or alcohol abuse. As a volunteer you will support the non-profit organization, that supports people from socially difficult backgrounds and aims to improve their living conditions and opportunities.

You do not need any previous experience or training/studies for these internships and you can take part from the age of 16!
