Kenya Work Abroad

Volunteer in Kenya


KENYAnamed for it's signature mountain, an East African country is considered the cradle of humanity and simply is Africa in microcosm. From the varied wildlife of the Serengeti to the beautiful white-sand beaches, the energetic cities, the enormous glacial mountains, and the expansive deserts, Kenya truly does encompass the full range of biodiversity that Africa has to offer. In Kenya it is possible to leave Nairobi, an ancient city with a thriving business heart powered by the latest information technology, and drive in just a few hours to a place where life is lived in accordance to tradition and custom, where native tribe, such as the Maasai warriors armed with spears drive cattle into thorn brush enclosures to protect them from lions at night. Kenya’s magnificent wildlife parks draw millions of tourists from around the world each year to witness life preserved in its natural habitat.

There are 42 ethnic communities in Kenya, all with their own language, history, culture and customs. The connecting languages spoken and understood by most are Swahili and English.

Volunteer projects are located in Nairobi and Mombasa. Hot and humid, Nairobi is the modern capital city of Kenya also known as the ‘Green City in the Sun’. Mombasa is a thriving port town based mainly on trade and with some spectacular beaches nearby. Our volunteer program presently supports local orphanages, HIV/AIDS Projects, local schools and NGOs working for different social issues. For certified health care professionals there are ample opportunities to assist doctors in local hospitals.

IMPORTANT NOTE: Recent political turmoil has caused a higher risk to personal safety in this destination. We recommend that you check with the US State Department and other government agencies before choosing this program. This is not a location for people with little or no international travel experience.
