Overview
About Volunteers Without Borders: Our vision and goal is to connect international volunteers with opportunities at the lowest cost possible that will provide them with the opportunity to give back to underdeveloped areas of the world that need all the help and support that they can get. Our mission is to recruit international volunteers and present them with international volunteer abroad opportunities to make a difference in developing countries in need. We offer program fees that are substantially lower than majority of other companies.
Kenya, like many other developing countries, faces a range of pressing issues that require immediate attention. One of the major challenges is poverty, as a significant portion of the population still lives below the poverty line. Additionally, corruption remains a persistent issue, undermining efforts to promote socioeconomic development and erode public trust in government institutions. Furthermore, the country grapples with high unemployment rates, particularly among the youth, which leads to a lack of opportunities and potential social unrest. Environmental degradation, including deforestation and water scarcity, also poses a threat to the country’s sustainable development. Finally, ethnic tensions and political instability continue to hinder the country’s progress towards peace and social cohesion. Addressing these challenges requires a multifaceted approach, incorporating not only government interventions but also the collaborative efforts of international organizations and local communities.
The programs we offer are designed to provide an ethical volunteering experience whereby volunteers will not only share their skills but will also learn about the local communities getting to know the people and their culture.
During your time in Kenya as a volunteer, we highly encourage you to spend some extra time before or after your program to get a chance to experience all the wonders a wildlife game reserve park has to offer.
Within the borders of this country, you will find savannahs rich with wildlife, timeless cultures unchanged by the modern world, pristine beaches and coral reef, equatorial forests and mighty snow-capped mountains, searing deserts, cool highland retreats and endless opportunities for adventure, discovery, and relaxation.
PLEASE NOTE: Volunteers are required to pay a Registration Fee of $225 CAD, which will be added to the program fee.
