Sports is one of the programs that have had a very positive impact In the lives of young people locally. Most of them who have for a long time been lost into drugs and drugs abuse have found their niche in sporting. In most cases we have football as the most popular sport where a lot of youth come together in the evenings to play football as a way of refreshment and positive interaction. These teams have their leaders and captains who organize tournaments on various seasons where if they're lucky enough, these tournaments are sponsored by local companies or even individuals where they're awarded trophies or money as a team to the winning team and other gifts which could be balls or team uniform as a way of encouragement. Volunteers have been of much help in this program where if they are sports enthusiasts they help in coaching and at times just interacting with the young men and playing together where the youth have a taste of playing soccer the professional western way. They also help in organizing tournaments or even marketing the teams in platforms where they can get sponsorships and hence bring a taste of professionalism and passion for the game. Sports Volunteering Program in Kenya , Africa In this program, volunteers are free to bring gifts to the teams like Balls, nets, trophies to be competed against or even team uniforms and any other gift they may feel free to bring for the teams.

Description

Salire Afrika Volunteers is a platform established in January 2020, and is located in Nanyuki which is one of the busiest tourist destinations in Kenya. Nanyuki,a town northwards of Nairobi,borrows its name from the Maasai community,its earliest inhabitants. (meaning 'place of red water' in the Masai language) .It is situated just north of the Equator, and at an elevation of 1,947m above sea-level, is the 14th highest town in Africa. Indeed,it is home to Africa's 2nd highest peak at MOUNT KENYA. The town is strategically sitting on one of the longitudinal imaginary lines, the EQUATOR! As Salire is Italian for Soar, Salire Afrika gives you an opportunity to soar Afrika on the wings of charity and adventure. We aim to create opportunities for volunteers across the world who are passionate about making a difference in the lives of indigenous and local communities living in Kenya! The volunteers' primary destination will be our volunteer houses from where they will be matched to their specific programs and placements either in teaching, youth and sports, child care, special needs, nature conservancies, medical outreach, animal welfare,women and girl/ boy child empowerment. These placements spread across town and its outskirts.
