Volunteer in a primary school in Kenya –Welicar’s mission is to help combat the recurrent cycle of poverty within the slums community through the nurturing of its children. Our undertaking is to facilitate orphaned and destitute slum children to realize their full potential in life through the provision of quality education and by tending to their physical, psychological, and spiritual needs. Our volunteers work with students who come from very difficult economic circumstances or are orphans.

  1. Hi! I am looking at coming to visit Africa and would love to start my trip with 2 weeks of volunteering. Looking for this to be around late July, early August.

    I am an Australian qualified teacher and would love the opportunity! Please let me know if you have availability around this time and what dates could work 🙂
