Volunteering in Ngorika and Kikatiti

Interview video:
Volunteering in Tanzania

Doing good and getting to know yourself in the process.

The volunteers who come to Tanzania stay for three months or longer and are always an essential part of the Good Hope Centre e.V. Our children appreciate them very much. Until March 2018, 42 volunteers were in our Happy Watoto Homes & School in Ngorika & Kikatiti. The volunteers came from Germany, Netherlands, Austria and Sweden. Thanks to volunteer support, there can always be special projects away from the daily routine at both locations that would otherwise not be possible.

The volunteers are bursting with energy and help the caregivers where they can. They are just as much there for the children and make a valuable contribution. At school, volunteers with a pedagogical background are an invaluable help and are used as supportive assistant teachers. Each of them says afterwards that volunteering has enriched their own lives. No wonder good things happen to good people.

Good Hope Centre e.V. is always happy about interest in volunteering. If you or someone you know would like to join us in Tanzania, please get in touch via the contact form or by phone (number in the Info-PDF). Here are some documents that you can use to inform yourself in advance about the possibilities of working on-site as a volunteer/intern:
