International Volunteer Work, Community Service, & Teaching Programs
If you've always wanted to experience -- really experience -- Africa, join us and get to know Africa through her people, Education, Volunteering and Travelling.
Use your skills to improve the lives of Street children, their families and Education and Sports as a volunteer in Tanzania.
Many families in Tanzania have been affected by HIV/AIDS, leaving a huge number of orphans without any support and often ending up as street children at an early age. As a volunteer, you will help in a street children and orphan centre, caring for these children and providing vital support and care to them in their early childhood. .
Choose from a number of service opportunities scheduled year-round in this small, impoverished country. Go on reading more about our Tanzania Orphans and Street Children Project.

The Program is working in line with the United Nations Convention on the Rights of Child Protection. Thus, ensure the following guidelines are responded to thorough your work:
- Responding to the right of survival � food, health and security
- Providing life skills � education and vocational training
- Providing children with the freedom to make decisions, regarding their own futures
- Supporting children in making life decisions and helping them to obtain these objectives
- Teaching children the traditions and rituals of their culture, to prevent alienation
- Allowing children to express their creativity � dance, music drama and arts
- Protecting children from the risks they face � AIDS, drugs, health issues and abuse
WHY WE ARE WORKING WITH KIDS AT THE CENTRE
It is important on this project that we offer the much-needed love and support to these children but also recognise their key strengths and skills, which will eventually lead to their success in everyday life, through your encouragement and careful one-to-one education. Working with these children is an investment, which is critical for their own health and also that of society. Training, educating and supporting vulnerable youth can have a very long-term impact on the socio-economic and environmental problems that are currently found in Africa and Tanzania in particular.
HWY WE ARE CREATIVE AND SUSTAINABLE PROJECT?
This orphan and street children project is focused upon sustainable development and has thus created some innovative programme areas, which emphasise the importance of vocational training. For example, you can help to work with local artists to develop artistic skills in young children and start new art projects and murals around the community:
- - Sports and game coaching
- - Education centres
- - Boarding houses for children
- - Vocational centres LI>- Libraries
- - It centres for computer skills
- - Building life skills and Talents .
