Add first reviewSince 1995

Cape Town is the perfect place to set up a base for your volunteering adventure in South Africa. The city is known to be one of the most beautiful ones in the world; the challenges the communities in and outside of Cape Town face, are huge. Those who are less fortunate, namely women, children, the elderly and homeless people, are the ones who are in great need. We dedicate ourselves to better their lives through help, love and skills they would otherwise not receive. Some of the projects involve sports such as rugby and surfing, others horse therapy for disabled children and others again involve volunteers in community projects and youth development. Helping at local schools or kindergartens is also popular. There is a lot of valuable projects to choose from. We help you find the right one. Volunteers in Cape Town and Hout Bay will be able to participate in the exciting social programme offered through our language school. Spend your weekends hiking Table Mountain, shark diving, or enjoying the world famous night life in the city. The city is a melting pot for young people from all over the world, and you are bound to find yourself in the company of life long friends.
