Maasai Youth Outreach Org
We focus on young girls who are at risk of early marriage and female genital mutilation. These girls typically come from unfortunate situations where their primary care-giver can no longer provide for them and therefore wants to sell them into marriage. Therefore, the target group mostly includes orphans, widow’s children, runaways, school drop-outs, and others from poor socio-economic backgrounds. Now we have 107 girls at the safehouse.
I have two kids and a wife and they have been hosting volunteers before so they will make you happy and you will be a member of our family during your stay

About the experience in: Ngong, Kenya
Spain
I stayed for 2 weeks with Jonathan and his family living at their house. I helped his wife with house work: cooking, laundry, cleaning, etc.
They took me to some community meetings in which I met wonderful people and another volunteer.
My last days I went to a school in which I could teach (English, Maths...) and here I met some people from Australia and USA.
They also taught me many things about their culture and took me to do some tourism.
I'm gonna miss so much this family!!

Raquel from Spain stayed in my home and she was a very nice volunteer who was willing to help in my home, village and in our local school. She was able to take some jewelry which are handmade from our rescued girls and from the widows. My family loved her a lot and we will miss her. Thank you Raquel for staying with us.

It was a wonderful experience; I lived with a truly good family in the village near the Ngong Hills. We did activities together every day, including preparing food, gardening, and more. The safehouse with the girls was amazing, the children are fantastic and very sweet. I would go again!

Roxanne from Greece was very much kind and loving we were able to show her our community and took her to ngong hills and she loved since our school was closed by then. She bought the widows jewelry to help them buy food. We will miss you
