Volunteering on a Care project in Kenya is a rewarding way to help improve conditions for disadvantaged local children. Participants with qualifications and experience are welcome, but you do not need to have either to volunteer. Energy, passion, and a commitment to the children you will be working with are the only requirements.

You’ll work at a daycare center, primary school, or special needs school in Nanyuki. Many of these placements are overcrowded, and the ratio of children to teachers and caregivers is too high. The work you do here is important, as you give local staff the support they need, and help give the children a safe space to learn and grow.
