Help Africa
There’s too much to see in Africa to just stay on the tourist trail. Try an alternative travel experience with us and see the real Africa. If you’re looking for a travel adventure full of awe-inspiring beauty, cultural journeys of discovery and cities as diverse as the landscapes, then volunteering in Africa is for you. The opportunities to do volunteer work in Africa are as vast as the continent itself and i-to-i is currently recruiting volunteers to work in nine countries across the continent in areas such as community development, building, teaching and conservation.. Whatever travel adventure you’re looking for, i-to-i can match you to the right volunteer project.



Imagine coming face to face with lions on a conservation project in South Africa, lemurs during wildlife preservation Madagascar and the undisturbed beauty of Zambia with its backdrop of amazing national parks and impressive vistas. Africa’s enchanting cities offer a different experience and i-to-i works with locally based community projects in Mombassa, Accra, Cape Town and Nairobi amongst others.
Volunteering abroad is a great way to see the sights not on traditional tourist tracks and the new people you meet when you do voluntary work will give you a different view of life.
