Volunteer in Africa
So you want to make a difference and do volunteer work abroad? Look no further than i-to-i’s volunteer Africa projects; they’re right for anyone who wants to make a positive contribution during travel in Africa.
Volunteering in Africa is an ideal way to be a responsible tourist whilst you enjoy the stunning beaches of Kenya's Mombasa or the diverse wildlife of the Kruger National Park. Get involved with Africa’s welcoming and friendly communities! Volunteer in Africa as part of a gap year will help you understand this unique continent on a far more intimate level. Plus, you don’t need any special qualifications. All we ask is that you have bags of energy and enthusiasm, an open mind and a camera to capture all those unique African travel experiences!
Volunteer in Africa could mean anything from community work in Kenya to wildlife conservation in South Africa. Imagine teaching English in Kenya and soaking up the Masai culture. With so many projects needing your help, you can be sure to find the volunteer Africa project that’s right for you. Get out there and get involved!
