Overview

Volunteer at an Orphanage, visit Maasai Mara Game Reserve and Lake Nakuru National Park.

This is a 2-Week Program designed with the concept of volunteer work, cultural immersion and game-viewing. You will meet local people as you volunteer and impact other people’s lives positively. Volunteers begin the first stage of their program by serving some of the most underprivileged and abandoned children in Kenya who need care and love.

As you spend your time and energy in this program, you will indeed realize how it’s a noble endeavor, as you provide hope for a better world for these children. In the second phase of the program we provide an opportunity to join a group to explore the grand country of the Maasai Mara game reserve and Lake Nakuru National Park.
