Project Overview
This project is a great way to get a board and diverse experience of volunteering in a
community development project in Africa and gain a great cultural experience at the
same time. This project is involved in a number of welfare and development programs so
giving you that broader volunteering and learning experience.
The project involves a two day orientation in Arusha and briefing of the project to
come. A Swahili lesson will be given to help volunteers intenerate better and have a more
profound affect in their work.
The project than takes volunteers to a remote village located near to Arusha National
park, deep into the Maasai steppe. Here volunteers will participate in the following
programs:
• Teaching – Plan and implement English, Sports and Healthcare lessons in a
Maasai primary school. Work with a volunteer coordinator and Maasai Translator
in creating an affective teaching plan for English and healthcare lessons. The
children at the Maasai primary school are under educated and are not receiving
the proper attention that they need. Most days they receive up to only 2 hours of
teaching per day.
Health care is very primitive in the village and most can not afford to treat simple
illnesses. Many of these diseases and illness can be prevented with simple health
care education. We intend to educate the children in this area so that they can
prevent and reduce potential and unnecessary health issues.
Sports and recreation sessions in the school is a time where more than often the
pupils are left to there own devises with no equipment. We aim to provide
productive sports sessions and equipment for the pupils and develop their physical
fitness and skills.
• Maasai Educational Community Outreach – Volunteers will spend a good amount
of their time living closely in the Maasai village and will get to know the
community members well. This includes getting to know their culture and their
hardship. The community is poor and often only survives on livestock. Education
is minimal and tourism and conservation concerns are pushing these people out
and reducing their lands for their livestock to graze on and to find water and live
on.
Many of the Elders and warriors want to learn English and business skills but can
not afford to go to school. The Maasai women also want to learn but are confined
to their homes and attending to their role in their society which comprises of child
care other home activities.
Learn form the truly unique sustainable life style that they lead and understand
more about their needs. This program is here to bring about a better understand
and awareness of one another’s cultures.
This is a chance for our volunteers to engage in a relationship with a few of the
Community members and for us to teach English, Health care and any other
Previous experience or qualifications we have, such as teaching, business,
agricultural, animal husbandry, irrigation qualifications.
If Volunteers feel they have no previous experience in these areas then there is
plenty of practical work to be involved with in the village such as building work
on the water project or village school development.
• Orphanage Care and Development – Global Safaris work with Samaritan
Children’s center where currently 120 orphaned children, aged form 6 months to
14, live. The center has to provide food, shelter, healthcare, education, and
guardian support for all these children. This is a large responsibility and also
costly. Much of the running costs are funded by volunteers and visitors. Each
volunteer that participated in this project, Global Safaris give a donation to the
running of the center.
Volunteers will assist in the running of the Orphanage. This will include the
following activities:
 Teaching Lessons to the day school pupils and assisting with home work
for those whom are educated in the local primary schools.
 Leading recreational sessions in their free time, in terms of story reading,
sports activities, singing songs etc…
 Small building projects in the centers grounds. This can be an organic
garden, chicken coup, playing facilities or small building facility.
 Emotional care and support. With so many children at the orphanage the
orphanage support workers do not have the time to tend to all the
children’s emotional needs and many go unchecked.
 Decorating the Orphanage building in terms of paintings and educational
posters.
Extra Activities Included
During the weekend our project volunteers have some time off to relax and get to enjoy
some of the wonderful things to offer in area that they are staying in. This includes taking
a cycling ride up through the banana plantations and forest of the Great Rift Valley wall.
Arrive at the Rift valleys waterfalls and swim in the natural pools.
Take the change to see some of Tanzania’s great wildlife by going on an afternoon’s
safari trip deep into the Maasai steppe. Whiteness Elephants, Giraffe, Zebra, Gazelle,
Ostrich, Fish Eagle and a diverse range of other Tanzanian wildlife and bird life.
Spend a day by the pool side taking in the African Sun, and beautiful environment
spending some hard earned rest after the weeks work.
Visit the local Maasai market and immerge yourself in their culture, foods, drinks and
then after join a Maasai celebration with song and dance.

a good dose of enthusiasm and any previous experience is warmly welcomed. Whether
you are a gap year student, undergraduate, on a career break, looking for some thing
different from life or retired everyone is welcomed onto this program.
Skills requirements

times where you are left to your own devises.
Physical fitness
Volunteers need to be physically fit as the project requires movement from one place to
the other and at some times being on you feet for long periods of time. Also the local
environment can take its toll on some people especially those who are not use to tropical
weather or the African heat. This climatic condition can tier some people very quickly
and in some cases if spent to long in the sun can make you feel ill.
