Family Volunteering in Africa
Volunteering in Africa isn’t just for singles and teens on gap year breaks, families are also welcome to volunteer with African Impact!
African Impact has drawn inspiration from families volunteering with us in the past and continues to welcome family groups on almost all of our volunteer programs in Africa. Please enquire with any one of our travel destination managers to find out about family friendly volunteer work and which programs are most suited to your family group. We are more than happy to tailor-make a once in a lifetime family volunteering experience for you.
Feedback on Adventure Family Travel to Africa
Family of four (Jeff, Bobbi, Keoni and Kaili Smith) from Hawaii have given us feedback on their family volunteering experience in Livingstone, Zambia. Read what they have to say about their adventure family travel program with African Impact, in October 2007:
“We can't begin to thank you enough for the opportunity of a lifetime. Our only regret is that we couldn't stay longer!
We are slowly easing our way back into society as we knew it, but it will never be as it was. The sleep deprivation on the way home did not help matters. Bobbi went to Costco yesterday, (a huge discount club store where we shop to save money) and broke out into tears after she called me on the cell. There is so much stuff here, Christmas is out and on the shelf, tons of food, and dry goods that nobody really needs, she was totally overwhelmed as all she could think of was our time there spent volunteering with kids that were happy with just the clothes on their back and some maize porridge as their meal for the day!
All in all I wanted to thank you for a great experience. Our kids will never be the same, neither will Bobbi and I! We truly enjoyed our time volunteering with African Impact, your entire staff and the other volunteers! You guys do a tremendous job and have a lot to be proud of.
Hang in there and keep up the good work!
We send our Love and Aloha to you
Missing you and wishing we were still there…”
