Location: Mafinga,Iringa, Tanzania
We have started a Kindergarten for children aged 2-5 from both fee-paying and non fee-paying backgrounds. We currently have 54 pupils, but that number is growing rapidly! we are group working together in a charity work

Volunteers are highly needed to work at the garden, at the school with kids to teach and to play with, all skills are needed! We would love to work with you, bring your ideas, skills, and come to join us! Currently we need strong men and women to help us building classrooms we already have materials ready for building we start building on 1st of September .we also need both sex volunteers in our kindergarten in various work


We are located in the Iringa District,in a small town called Mafinga. Mafinga is a small community at the heart of the Tanzanian tea industry.
Some volunteers have taken trips to Ruaha National Park and Mikumi National Park for safaris and wildlife viewing. The climate in Mafinga is wonderful all year round– warm but not too humid. We do have rainy seasons, around April and October. We organize tour safaris to Ruaha National Park for cheap price than charged by Safari companies ,is a private car so our volunteer contribute little money for the car for our volunteer to have pleasure with our place

We do not cover flights, visas , transportation to and from our site or any other such expenses.
Flights greatly vary in price depending on how far in advance you book, and the time of year you are traveling.



We are particularly interested in volunteers with specific skill sets relating to our work, such as teachers, gardeners, environment engineers, solar power designers ,social and building workers, and other skills such as drama, music, art, computer.
If you are thinking of longer term volunteering (up to 1 to 3 months ), please bear in mind the appropriate visas.The visa which permits you to volunteer for up to three months (a Tanzanian Government regulation) costs $250.

We would like our volunteers to take initiative to help our Kindergarten to improve and move forward. We hope that you will offer your own skills and interests to help our school grow, our crops improve.

Volunteering hours will vary depending on which areas of our tasks you decide to get involved with. For example if you are interested in teaching you will be teaching or having various activities with the kids from 8 am to 12am, if you are working at the garden, the maximum we ask from you is 5 hours a day, depending on the needs.
