Description

A Community Based Organization which is a non profit making organization that organizes volunteer work camps and placements. These projects are hosted in a rural setting where volunteers live and work together with the local community. During this time they learn, work, interact and get immersed into the local culture. They also discover the country through excursions and safaris that are arranged over the weekends.

Our camps are laden with fun and a place to make friends from diverse background. Its a haven for learning and personal growth while touring the country.

Why does workaway.info allow listings of hosts who charge money?

In developing countries (Where most hosts are involved in charity work or community development) some of our hosts may ask for a small donation to help the host family or charity (often less then 5 dollars per day) Workaway will allows this listing when the donation goes directly to the family or charity and is just to cover the cost of the volunteers stay. (This this will be clearly marked on the host listing).
We will strictly not allow listings posted by agents or “middle men” or projects who we feel are looking to profit from a volunteers stay.

16 dollars per day
