Volunteering

Although we have a lot of local staff working for the project in Tanzania which is running fine, volunteers make a major contribution to the project in Mto wa Mbu. The local staff has her regular duties. The volunteers ensure that such children receive more attention, that jobs in and around the house and the center are done and that new ideas arise and are implemented. So there is always plenty to do!

Besides the vacancies listed on the right side of this page, we are always looking for more volunteers. Anyone can make a major contribution to the further development of Twiga Foundation. Since this is a childrens’ project, you might think that only volunteers with a social background can contribute. Nothing is further from the truth: also as a biologist, architect, technician, manager, environmental specialist, lawyer or without a specific field of knowledge, we can use your capabilities very well!

Many international volunteers have been in Mto wa Mbu since the start of the project. Please contact them for details or check out the Facebook site. Here you can find volunteers who have been there and what they did. Need more information about the location and circumstances in which you will work? Check this!
