I spent 3 weeks with the project and had an amazing experience. From day one, the team made me feel like family, and I formed lasting friendships. Although I came as an English teacher, I got involved in various programs like agriculture, education, business development and human rights. the project is a reference point for the camp and offers constant support to the comunity. Thanks to them, I had the chance to explore the camp and connect with many people there, who taught me a lot. I'm grateful for this experience and look forward to returning soon. Asante sana, Luca

My time in Kakuma was unforgettable. It was a dream of mine to get to know a Refugee Camp and it couldn't be a better experience. I was able to interact a lot with the local the project, get to know and understand how the camp and its facilities work, engage a lot with the refugees, both young people as children! I was so happy to see the work that's its been done by the project and I would love to be back to Kakuma!

Aisha is an exceptional team member who brings dedication, kindness, and professionalism to everything she does.

Her strong work ethic and positive spirit make her an invaluable part of our team. We highly recommend her to any host or organization seeking a committed and impactful volunteer.

This worldpackers post is highly misleading. No meals or accommodation were provided as promised; only lunch was covered when I worked. They initially told me that accommodation would be $7 per day, and I stayed 30 days at their recommended guesthouse. On the last day, I was charged 9000 KSH ($700). After I complained, they gave me 15000 KSH. I never taught English to kindergarten students because the kindergarten was closed. Instead, I did random tasks each day, was often left alone in the office for hours with nothing to do. But I had an amazing experience with the refugees and locals.

Thank you for your review. The volunteer came in November at the end when some programs of the organisation were closed due to time and budget running out and one to two programs were still running. The issue of accommodation was a little lack of understanding between the organisation and the volunteer; we showed him different accommodations that were cheaper, but the volunteer did not like them. We have been doing the renovation of the volunteers' house since early October.

Trabajar como voluntaria con el proyeto en el campo de refugiados de Kakuma ha sido una de las experiencias más increibles de mi vida. Enseñar español a los jóvenes no se trataba solo de lenguaje, sino de conexión, compartir y presenciar la increíble resiliencia de las personas que han soportado tanto. Desde el primer día, me sentí bienvenida, por toda la comunidad. El entusiasmo de los chicos por aprender español, a pesar de los muchos desafíos que enfrentan a diario, me conmovió profundamente. Especial agradecimiento a Amadi, que siempre me ha tratado como un miembro más del equi

Formar parte de un proyecto real es algo que llevaba mucho tiempo buscando y mis expectativas eran altas, pero con el proyeto pude sentirme realizada, completa y disfrutar de un proceso de crecimiento interno muy interesante. Me llevaré a los peques en mi corazón para siempre y a cada una de las personas que conocí en el camino. Gracias.
