This is a highly varied experience that allows you to try many different things within our organisation while making a practical difference.

Activities & Shift

This role is hands-on and creative. We work in flexible shifts, to capture content and respond to the priorities of the guesthouse and projects. Our local team will work alongside you, helping you navigate the different areas of the foundation for your content.

Content creation: Creating social media content and supporting creative projects to tell the Muzanga story.
Operational support: As a volunteer, you can also assist with daily hosting duties and campsite upkeep.

Safari & wildlife: You can easily visit South Luangwa National Park. Short-term volunteers need to cover the park fee. You can also go into the Game Management Area (GMA) or relax along the riverbanks.
Cultural connection: You can join staff on project days or village tours. Our team sometimes invites volunteers to their homes, local soccer games, or church services, offering an opening to daily African life.
Social & leisure: Back at the headquarters, you can relax in our swimming pool or join our social evenings. We host fun nights like movie nights, a braai/pizza night, karaoke, game nights, or campfires.
