Description

The help of volunteers is desperately needed and greatly appreciated on this community program. Volunteers can get involved in different aspects on the project and really make a difference to these locals' lives. Become part of the community and meet some amazing people whilst helping to provide children and adults with accommodation and a better education. Teach, get involved in projects including adult education, HIV awareness and working in preschool and elderly care centers. You will also have a four day Safari into Botswana including a game drive in Chobe National Park.

Highlights

Everyone is welcome on the program to help in anyway they can. There are no specific requirements and everyone can lend a hand. However, if you are a medical professional (such as a social worker, doctor or nurse) you may be able to work in the 63 bed hospital along with the local medical staff as well as participate in the out reach programs that go to the remote villages for health care.

Also, any teachers are welcome to assist in the basic school and get as involved as you wish with the teaching there.
