Looking for serious adventure?

This program is for you. You will never meet more hospitable, friendlier people, but you won’t have access to many creature comforts.

Zomba District, our home base, represents a place of dreams, hopes, and opportunities. Zomba District Council, together with various development partners, aims to provide an enabling environment for men, women, girls, and boys to realize their potential and meet their social and economic endeavors.

Volunteers are usually assigned to one of four primary schools, a Vocational Training School, or Community Health Center. Potential projects include laying & molding bricks, painting, renovating, or assisting at the health post. Volunteers typically work two days a week with children, while the remaining day is divided between completing earlier projects and participating in cultural activities. Also, since schools in the community usually have a half-day on Fridays, volunteers may assist in reorganizing youth programs, such as sports, entrepreneurship, and arts and crafts.

One-week long.

No special skills are required.
