Andrew is really working hard.I appreciate his efforts.The house and staff are really good.His family members are also very kind and helpul. I and other volunteers were comfortable and secure. I have stayed 6 months this time and I was able to notice improvements both educational and structurally. During October there were 2 other volunteers,Chloe and Isabel, they have turned children's graduation day to a wonderful and unforgettable day.For medical volunteers I have started moderate medical office(examination tools, stiching set, variety of medicines; so you can help children/community.

Volunteering at the organization in the organization was one of the most heartwarming experiences of my life. The children filled each day with joy, laughter, and so much love. Every smile, every hug, and every small interaction taught me something new about kindness and resilience. Being part of their world, even for a short time, was truly a gift. I'll always carry their light and spirit with me. Also, I'm deeply thankful to Andrew, my host, for his kindness and flexibility, always ready to help and adapt to any situation.

Maybe the fact that I came back a second time already says a lot about how much I love this place, these children, and Andrew's family! I had an amazing month closing the school year with exams and graduation. I was really impressed by all the improvements made at the school in just 7 months, thank you Andrew for your dedication to these lovely pupils. Nawapenda sana, na tutaonana badaaye ❤️

I am very happy and content here at the organization. I have stayed 3 months and and extended my visa 3 more months to stay here. I have started an infirmary with the donations of my collagues and friends from Turkey. Andrew,as a host, is a good listener and values any recommendation.I have realized that the longer I have stayed the more I could be helpful,useful for the children. Davide from Italy stayed here 2 weeks and in one week he realized many things and started an fundraising on gofundme.Thanks to Davide, clean water is available now. New washrooms are on the way.

It's hard to put into words what I've lived through these past few days here. It's something that enters your soul, something you feel with your whole body. You feel part of something, a deep connection, a mission. A profound mission that sinks into you and that you carry out into the world. It helped me discover so much about myself. I came here to give so much, but I'm leaving having received even more. My experience with Andrew was simply wonderful. His mission is visible in his eyes and in everything he does. Thanks Andrew✨
