The time the project, Evenlight, the director, the staff and the kids will be unforgettable for me. I not only have learned something about commitment and engagement for the people, I also learned something about the life of the tanzanian people and was treated like I was one of them. the project helped me wherever and whenever he could and made sure that his home was also mine. He showed me local markets and had an answer for every question I had. The engagement of Flora, the director, for the kids and teenagers at the school will always have a place in my heart. Asante sana! 🇹🇿🙏🏻

My experience the project was simply amazing! He's such a beautiful and genuine person — someone you can fully trust. From the very first moment, I felt safe and comfortable with him✨The experience at the school left me speechless, the kids are absolute angels ❤️so grateful for even the smallest gestures. The only bad thing about this experience is that it's over. I already miss the project, his family, the children, and the whole community so much🤍🤍🤍

This experience was better than I could have ever imagined! The hospitality of both the project and Everlight was perfect, we felt extremely welcomed and looked after over the entire trip. We also got to explore Arusha with host the project, by visiting local attractions, markets and shops. The school the project works with is such an amazing organisation and was an experience I will never forget. My friend and I that completed this World Packers experience feel so lucky that we found the project's page!

Our Stay the project was beyond anything we could have imagined! From the moment we met him it instantly felt like a safe welcoming home. the project was attentive with all our needs, and made sure our safety was a top priority. Everlight was a gem, she cooked (we helped!), she helped with our washing and was just an all rounder. We visited the school each day, which was a beautiful experience, which we also found the strong connection the project has built with this community of people already. We also got taken around to local markets and restaurants to experience the local culture. Highly Recommend. ❤️

Kenny is a genuine and spontaneous person who cares about every detail of your stay. You'll live at his home, enjoying delicious local dishes prepared by Heavenlight, his trusted housekeeper. Volunteering takes place in orphanages and schools in Arusha, offering a chance to experience real Tanzania. As Kenny says, he doesn't let you visit Tanzania, he makes you live it. The program is flexible (go with the flow), and with him you can also arrange safaris, excursions, and discover authentic local places. Truly recommended!

Thank you so much for this thoughtful review! It was a true pleasure hosting you and sharing our home, food, and community. I’m so glad you enjoyed the meals from Heavenlight she’ll be so happy to hear your kind words. Your time at the school and orphanage meant a lot, not only to the kids but also to the community. I always say Tanzania is not just a place to visit, it’s a place to live and I’m happy you felt that experience. You’ll always be part of our Arusha family. HAKUNA MATATA see u soon
