I enjoyed my stay and felt very comfortable from the beginning. Emma was very kind and welcoming! Thank you! The school was absolutely wonderful. The children are learning so much and the teachers are highly skilled. I built a great relationship with the teachers and the children. My boyfriend and I were able to support in various activities which was a rewarding experience for us. We already miss everyone! Another highlight of our time was a weekend spent with Emma and Wyck, which included a safari, rhino trekking, and chimpanzee tracking. We can definitely recommend it!

My stay at the organization was wonderful. Emma welcomed us into his home, and we always felt comfortable at the accommodation. Together with Emma and Wyck, we had an amazing time on safari. The school itself is very inspiring, a place with a passion for learning. I had the chance to help prepare meals, contribute to building the new toilet facility, and assist in teaching the children. My girlfriend and I also used donations to buy and distribute essential items for the school and the kids, which brought so much happiness to the children and teachers.

Even though my time at the organization was very short, I learned so much here. Wyck taught me how to make chapati, bracelets and took us on a sunset hike. The school itself is an amazing place! The children are all so happy and eager to learn. I was stunned to see how well the 5 year old good write and read. The accommodation is basic, like you can expect in a rural area in Africa, but it has all you need. Emmanuel, Wyck and Reagan were very welcoming and made me feel at home from the moment I arrived.

Highly recommended the organization! We had the most incredible experience with Emma and felt so welcome from the moment we arrived. Each weekday was spent at the school helping the children and running our own classes and then on the weekend we had free time to explore the area. Everyone is so lovely and friendly. Words can't describe how great these 2 weeks were. I will definitely come back. Thankyou

Such a beautiful, rewarding, and eye-opening experience! From the moment I arrived, Lydia, Emmanuel, and their family welcomed me with open arms—I truly felt at home, comfortable, and part of the family. The food was delicious, filling, and healthy—I was always satisfied. Teaching at the school was amazing; the kids were adorable and so eager to learn (patience is essential!) If you come, have an open heart and be adaptable. Power and running water aren't always accessible —it's a third-world country. This isn't a cheap holiday but a chance to give, grow, and embrace a new culture.
