African Impact has been amazing. Everyone is so nice and welcoming and all of the kids we have worked with have been incredible. This is an experience I will never forget. I never thought two weeks could change my life.

African Impact does amazing things. The experience in the communities has been an eye-opening experience in which I found myself learning not only about others and their communities but also about myself. It pushes you to open up in unique ways, forcing you to reflect on who you are and on a larger scale, who the rest of the world is as well. I think the work that is done through African Impact truly changes lives, for those being served but also just as much as those doing the serving.
