Volunteer Programs in Kigali, Rwanda

Kigali’s landscape is one of natural wonders, deep valleys, and glorious hills. While volunteering in Kigali, experience the land of a thousand hills, wildlife and natural undulating savannah creating a beautiful culture and great diversity. Kigali’s fast-growing economy has created a mixed ecosystem where determination to grow and improve is balanced by the hospitality of an affectionate people.  

Popular causes/program types in Kigali. Reach, preach, and teach! After years of civil war the city of Kigali has embraced eco-tourism, and green development, and is turning the Nyandungu wetland into an eco-tourism park. There are numerous organizations promoting education in Rwanda, too. Volunteers in Kigali interested in education, library work, and child development will find many great places to lend their time and talents. 

Summer/short term programs. If you only have a summer break or even a semester away, you will still find many programs that will allow you to take advantage of all the benefits of volunteering abroad in Kigali.

Long-term volunteer stints. Commit to volunteer projects in Kigali where both expats and travelers enjoy the opportunity to develop a close connection to the community, learning a language, having an impact on the lives of people in need.
