Volunteering in Kenya over the summer was a truly amazing experience. AV were incredibly well organised in preparing the volunteers for what to expect and what to bring. The UK and Kenya office were very friendly and efficient, in addition to keeping families at home updated with our progress. The projects and extra activities available were amazing. I can not speak highly enough of our guide Charles. He knew how to get the most out of us and made sure we had as great an experience as possible. The more you put into this fantastic experience, the more you get out.

In short, my experience in Kenya was really great. Having decided that I wanted to experience Africa, I also decided I wanted to do voluntary work. After some careful research on different program providers, I found AV. Their office in the UK was incredibly helpful in answering all my pre-departure questions and helping me sort out my visa.

The project itself was great – I was teaching English at a primary school, and really did feel like I was making a meaningful difference (I would assist the teachers and had about 3/4 hours of teaching time per day). To sum up, I can’t recommend AV enough – they are helpful, efficient, friendly, and provided me with an unforgettable teaching experience in Africa.
