  • Description

    Right to smile has been set up after a volunteer experience I had in Kenya. It was an overwhelming experience I wanted to share with everyone and came up with the idea of setting up Right to Smile - a Non Profit organization offering affordable and accessible volunteer travel programmes in developing countries for both first time and experienced volunteers. Being a non profit organisation we will work relentlessly such that all our efforts are directed to helping local organisations/communities in our targeted countries as we seek to expand further such that Right to Smile assists an ever extensive population of kids around the world.

    Our volunteering programmes vary from a 2-week stay to long term placements. Prior to offering any volunteering experience for our members Right to Smile personally visits every location and coordinates extensively with local organisations/communities to ensure that each and every volunteering experience is indeed a memorable one that will invariably act as a promotion to encourage others to follow suit.

  • Highlights

  • Qualifications

    Right to Smile is a non-profit organization that uses volunteers' desire and eagerness to contribute with their, talent, creativity and time to assist kids in need and in parallel instil awareness that aids reduce injustice against children worldwide.

    It is our belief that the setting up of this organization is the most effective way to achieve the goal of linking volunteers with Children's organizations, embarking on projects that provide sustainable long term opportunities. Furthermore, being a non profit organisation enables us to divert all our income towards our mission statement that of improving the lives of children.

    It is our social responsibility to ensure that children get the necessary education, the basic standard of living, and are consequently given the opportunity to follow their dreams. For this to be achieved the need to be supported and their voices heard.

    Only together can we achieve our goal that of providing every child with an opportunity, and indeed their right to smile.
