This project is perfect for anyone either individual or group eager to use their hands to help. If you want to see tangible results from your volunteer work, join our Building Project.

In this Project volunteers are required to raise some funds which will be used to buy some materials which will be used for the construction or renovation work at the schools. We will appreciate for any amount of funds that you will raise for the project.

No building experience is needed. All the work you do is under the guidance and supervision of a professional builder, and they’ll teach you everything you need to know.

This project runs all year round so you can choose to volunteer when it suits your schedule. We encourage you to stay longer so you can do more from minimum of two weeks you can do a lot also depending on the amount of the funds we have collected for the project.

A trip to Tanzania is the chance to experience life in the heart of Africa. There’s plenty to see and do here during your free time on your project.

A project in Tanzania wouldn’t be complete without a safari! This is a chance to see the beautiful wildlife of this country, like elephants, rhinos, and lions.

What’s more, Tanzania is home to the highest mountain in Africa, Mount Kilimanjaro. Hiking around the base through lush vegetation is a peaceful way to spend an afternoon.

Browsing through a vibrant, local market is a must while you’re there. You can also spend time in a Maasai village, getting to know a completely different way of life.

There will likely be many other volunteers in Tanzania with you. This means you have the option to explore the country independently or with a group of like-minded volunteers from different projects.

Typical day

On a typical day, building work will usually take place in the morning up to the afternoon. So your work hours might be from about 8am to 1pm.

With the help of other volunteers, and under the guidance of an experienced builder, you’ll do things like digging foundations, mixing cement, construct a roof, laying bricks, or plastering walls. It’ll be tough but rewarding work, as you see the tangible results of your efforts.

With the help of an experienced builder, you’ll construct classrooms and other school buildings. It will be tough work, but knowing that you’re helping local communities will make the effort worthwhile.

You don’t need to worry if you don’t have any building experience. A local builder will teach you all the skills you need to participate fully in this project. The work you do will depend on how long you’re volunteering for and the progress that’s already been made on buildings when you arrive. The local builder will guide you in using construction techniques that are easy to master.

You might start the building process by digging foundations, or if you arrive near the end of a building’s completion, you’ll plaster and paint walls. No matter which part of the construction process you contribute to, you can be sure that you’re adding a very necessary piece to the puzzle.

You’ll use locally sourced materials and you won’t need any electricity at the site, because your building work is done by hand.

You’ll have your evenings free or teaching the kids and adults at the library
