Kenya
Volunteer in Kenya and take part in projects that work to address the needs of disadvantaged local communities. You’ll experience life in this vibrant country and take part in cultural exchange, while surrounded by gorgeous scenery.
Support teachers and promote early childhood development, or take part in community outreaches on our medical internships. You can also get involved in vital conservation work, conducting research on the critically endangered Rothschild’s Giraffe.
Our Conservation volunteers are based in the Soysambu Conservancy, around three hours away from Nairobi. Everybody else works in the town of Nanyuki.
A visit to the bustling capital of Nairobi is a must. You can check out some great museums, restaurants, and markets.
All Trips
If you want a life changing experience, volunteer overseas or join a group for a short term exploratory or working visit. We believe development is a two way street. You will learn as much or more from another culture as they will learn from you. Start your adventure today.
Devxchange and partners work in over 30 countries – so choose your adventure!
Authentic Adventures
Be immersed in the culture and cuisine, and get to witness the marvels of nature while helping to preserve it. These trips will speak to your inner adventurer and give you the opportunity to make connections with like-minded travelers.
Building
Volunteer on a Building Project to add important resources to communities that need them most.
Our Building Projects take place in under-resourced countries all over the world. Some are in rural areas, others in cities. You can build homes, schools, daycare centers, sanitation facilities, or community buildings. Some of our projects are based in places affected by natural disasters where communities are still recovering.
Childcare
Seeing the development of a child, and being a part of that process, is priceless. As a childcare volunteer, you’ll play a direct role in helping children, while also learning new skills.

Volunteer Abroad
Wildlife Conservation
Once you’ve traveled with us on a wildlife volunteer program, you won’t see the world in the same way again. You’ll experience the raw beauty and vulnerability of nature as you work alongside an international team. Together, you’ll protect endangered animals and ecosystems. So get your backpack, because you’re going on an adventure!
Women's Empowerment
In many countries, women are marginalized and are often raised without the ability to speak up. They’re discriminated against in various areas with many women never receiving basic education. Without the opportunity for skills development, women and their families end up in a continuous cycle of poverty.
Youth and Community Development
Assisting with the development of these children is a good way to understand the problems they face. Our Youth Development volunteer programs abroad will give you the chance to make a long-term impact on the future of these kids. Your help will improve their confidence as you interact and learn about each other’s cultures.
You’ll stay with local host families and experience what being in a new country is really like. On the days you aren’t working you can explore the city or go on guided tours. You’ll also meet volunteers and other like-minded individuals with whom you can share stories.
