Volunteering with Children in Tanzania for Teenagers

This project is perfect for teenagers who enjoy working with children. You’ll also get your hands dirty doing community work. This could be anything from painting a classroom to building playground equipment.

You don’t need any qualifications or experience to join. This is a great opportunity to gain childcare experience and add new skills like planning and leadership to your CV.

This project is specifically designed for teenage volunteers. We have a set itinerary and extra staff support, so you’ll have plenty of guidance.

The aim of this project is to support staff and children at under-resourced care centres.

Parents and caregivers typically have to work long hours to support their family, leaving children without enough support at home.

Teachers in kindergartens and schools also struggle to meet the needs of children who are falling behind in their development. Overcrowded classes make it impossible for teachers to monitor children closely, and many kids struggle with their education. On top of this, schools are often underfunded and lack the resources needed to make learning fun and engaging.

As part of your volunteer work, you will provide support for children’s overall development. You’ll also help make care centres, kindergartens, and schools brighter, more welcoming places.

We’ve outlined three main goals in our Childcare Management Plan for Tanzania. These goals are:

• Promote early childhood development
• Improve hygiene levels of the children
• Increase English

Join this Childcare & Community Project for teenagers and help us work towards achieving these goals.
