Volunteering in Africa
If you are looking to volunteer in Africa then it’s likely that “voluntourism” is now part of your vocabulary. Whether you want to help secure the future of African wildlife, or work with local groups educating Zulu or Masai children, there’s a volunteer position open to you.
This could be your African adventure
Whatever your choice, it is vital work and everything you do here makes a real difference.
It’s not all work and no play though. Wherever you go there will be chances to experience Africa’s fabulous natural treasures and take part in adventures that will stay with you for the rest of your life. Maybe you’ll appreciate the peace and solitude of the Savannah? Perhaps you’re more of a bunjee jumper or white water rafter? It’s all here for you to be a part of.
Listed below are the current African volunteering, conservation and community projects which we are involved with. Please have a read through, see which one appeals to you and then get in touch.
We’re here to help you every step of the way.
