African Impact
Through our volunteer programs, we invite you to be more than a tourist - to be a traveller, a conservationist and a humanitarian. Explore, Inspire, Impact.

Annie Rose joined us in Mozambique earlier in 2008, and has just finished up her placement on Zanzibar Island off the coast of Tanzania. Annie Rose was assiting with rural pre-school teaching and community development...
I loved spending time with the kids at the school and establishing connections with them individually. I also loved getting to know my fellow volunteers. Just being in such a beautiful area was a highlight everyday, and my weekend (on the north coast) in Nungwi was amazing.
What were your overall impressions of our Volunteer in Africa organisation?
Well I must like it somewhat if I chose to come back again!
But seriously I do think this program has a wonderful aim and is doing wonderful things to help Africa. Even though the organisation is only 5 years old it has already done significant work to better the entire country. Each time I come here I seem to fall more and more in love with the organization. I really had a wonderful time on this trip and I’m very sad to be leaving. I hope to return to Zanzibar or work with another African Impact project very soon.
