Programa detallado

Volunteers are welcome to share their knowledge by teaching subjects such as English, Mathematics, Social Studies, Religious Education, Science, and other areas they feel confident in. Most people choose one or two subjects to focus on. Volunteers may also support activities at our rescue center for girls at risk of FGM and early marriage, which currently hosts 103 girls. Cultural activities, sports, arts, and tutoring are encouraged. Guided visits to nearby mountains, valleys, and hills can also be arranged.


Actividades & Turnos

Volunteers will live within a Maasai community, where daily life includes caring for animals such as cattle, goats, sheep, and donkeys, as well as growing crops like maize, beans, potatoes, and other local produce. Meals commonly include ugali and sukuma wiki, chapati, potatoes, rice, meat, and other foods that volunteers usually enjoy. In town, it is possible to find anything else that may be needed.

Activities are flexible and depend on each volunteer’s interests and skills. Volunteers may support pupils by sharing subjects such as English, Mathematics, Social Studies, Religious Education, Science, and more. Most people choose one or two subjects they feel confident in. Volunteers are also welcome to organize sports and arts activities in the afternoons. Maasai Morans often share their culture through traditional dances, legends, and storytelling, offering a rich cultural exchange. Many volunteers also choose to tutor students during their stay.

Through this cultural exchange, volunteers gain meaningful experiences such as taking photos of the Morans, receiving Maasai jewelry as gifts, and having the option to purchase more to share or sell back home. Volunteers can visit Maasai Manyattas, attend graduation ceremonies, and witness traditional Maasai weddings and other important community events.


Reglas

Volunteers are advised not to walk alone at night and not to visit pubs without being accompanied by the host. Any intention to support families directly or purchase jewelry should be discussed with the host family first. When visiting nearby national park areas, volunteers are encouraged to use official tourist routes for safety.
