The experience at the school was good, the kids are lovely and so curious when see a foreign person. The school staff is also very kind, they try to make you feel welcomed. Besides William tries to make you feel welcomed and encourages you to some activities to get to know more about Kenya, some times the atmosphere at his home isn’t good at all, and he is permanently and indirectly pushing you to make donations to the school.

My experience with Ivy league was a one of kind. Among all of what I have experienced in around the world, this one was so special in all dimensions.

Starting with the amazing William, the person who made my experience a great one. The person who dedicated his schedule to make sure that I have everything I need to be ready for the experience. He has made everything so clear starting by providing all the needed information to be prepared for what to expect, and closing with a nice introduction to his lovely team.

My experience was phenomenal, the kids were amazing and played an amazing part

I had a wonderful time in at Ivy League Academy in Thika with William’s family. William really treats you like family and wants you to have a really good experience there. He has hosted over 100 volunteers so his family is very experienced with these experiences.

William has an amazing and clear vision/plan for where he wants to take this project and he’s very open about all the details and challenges that go into it. The school has lovely students who are very excited to learn. The school has a special welcome/goodbye parties for you. I miss everyone so much! Thank you William!

I do not recommend this volunteering. Most of the agreements I made with William were not fulfilled. I did not teach, as he said. I did not help organizing the school, as he said. I did not help with new school projects, as he said. The only help that will be appreciated in here is how much money you can give or get by finding sponsors for the school. Money which is not invested in the school. It is expected from you to share all you do in your personal social media. We agreed I will stay for two months, however, William asked me to leave during the second week. Accommodation and food were ok.
