Volunteer abroad program Kenya

Beginning of the project The volunteer projects run throughout the year. Therefore, we are open for your individual suggestion, which we are going to propose to our partner organisation. Time of arrival We recommend to arrange an arrival a few days prios to the start of the volunteer project. You can move in to your guest family up to 3 days before the official project start at no additional costs. You then have enough time to recover from the long flight, get to know your host family and make your first trips. Arrival at the Airport Arriving in a new country is always exciting. We want your arrival to be as relaxed as possiple. One of the staff members of our partner organization will pick you up at the airport and bring you to your host family or your shared flat. He/she will be waiting for you at the airport with a sign with your name on it. If you cannot find a flight at the desired date, don’t worry. You can choose another one a few days earlier or later. Orientation program Within the first days of your arrival one of the team members of our partner organisation will pick you up and show you around. You will get to know Kenya and its people and you will be informed about Do’s and Dont’s. The program will be held with more volunteers at the same time. This is the perfect opportunity to get to know like-minded globetrotters. The orientation program will last 2 days you will spend in Nairpobi. This will be your perfect start in your volunteer abroad.
