Overview
We are a young and dynamic Swiss-based non-profit organization operating in Africa. We support children in need, and we strive to enable them to pursue a sustainable future. We believe that small actions have big effects.
Details
Our volunteers play an important role in our projects, providing much-needed support, assistance, and individual attention that is crucial for children’s growth and development. As a volunteer for help2kids you will be participating in a meaningful way in projects that are valued by the communities with whom we work. Your work makes a difference!
help2kids offers 15 volunteer placements in Dar es Salaam, Tanzania and 12 volunteer placements in Lifuwu, Malawi. You may choose to split your time between the projects in Tanzania and the projects in Malawi; often volunteers choose to spend one month or longer in each location. Lifuwu gives you a feel for rural village life while Dar es Salaam introduces you to a fast-growing, bustling African city.
Our team in Tanzania and Malawi comprises approx. 60 permanent employees (local and international). As a volunteer you will experience first hand the work of a very international team in Africa.
We also offer private lessons in Swahili or Chichewa with our specialized language teacher who comes directly to the guesthouse.
