Gap Year Volunteering in Tanzania

When you volunteer in Tanzania with i-to-i, you will be making a positive contribution to Tanzania's future development and getting a deeper understanding of the country's people, customs and culture. We work with conservation, sports coaching, teaching and community development projects across the country.
