Volunteer trip in Tanzania
November 22, 2025by: Maeva Leclercq - FranceProgram: Volunteer in Childcare in TanzaniaThe experience was great. We stayed in very clean houses, and food was included. There was even hot water and a caretaker! For the volunteer programs, I was able to do babysitting, which was fantastic. The veterinary internship was a little less enjoyable. I made friends from all over the world. It was a great social experience!
I had a truly lovely volunteer as a first time volunteer
October 18, 2025by: YANJEN HUANG - TaiwanProgram: Volunteer in Childcare in TanzaniaI truly love the experience from ivhq!I recommend for those who want to volunteer aboard but has no experience at all! ivhq ensure and support in every steps you take for your volunteering project.They also have strong connection with the local team, when you arrive you have every support you need and you don't feel overwhelmed easily, you feel free to ask for everything you need, the local team would do everything they can to assist you.


Best experience
August 15, 2025by: Sofia Arnaiz - MexicoProgram: Volunteer in Childcare in TanzaniaVolunteering with IVHQ in Tanzania was truly a life-changing experience. From the moment I arrived, I felt welcomed and supported by both the IVHQ team and the local coordinators. Everything was well-organized — from the airport pickup, to the orientation, to the placement itself — which made me feel safe and confident in a completely new environment. I did childcare, and it was beyond rewarding. The children were full of energy, warmth, and joy, and every day felt meaningful knowing I was making a real difference. The work was hands-on and immersive, giving me a deeper understanding of the community’s needs and culture. Outside of volunteering, I had the chance to explore the incredible beauty of Tanzania — from the vibrant local markets to breathtaking safaris. The people I met, both locals and fellow volunteers, made this journey unforgettable. I can’t recommend IVHQ enough for anyone looking to combine travel with purpose. Tanzania will always have a special place in my heart, and I’m already looking forward to my next volunteering adventure.
