volunteers will learn our life style , like how we eat, how we behave and many others things volunteer will learn , we will also learn from you how Western Countries eat,live, etc, we will also be beneficial to our project by bringing new ideas how we can improve our daycare project and other things
we need help in gardening volunteers can work on garden to plant new crops or vegetables, fruits, carrots, etc or you may bring seeds to help us grow other variety ,help in cooking you may work together with our cook and team to prepare children food during the day which is lunch,Dinner and breakfast , help in teaching you may teach English to children like Alphabets, names,numbers, anything you want to teach them this does not volunteer to be a teachers any one can teach ,,Help in building you may build with mad at our place,and other activities we have,
Offering work with us ,we appreciate as than paying money to us, we could give money to do the work which volunteers are doing , that is why we give accommodation and food without fees because you work for us even if is short time a day 4-5 hours a day but is more wealth, we could collect some income and pay people to do this kind of work , volunteering is creating memory than anything else .You are welcome
Here we have also HIV/AIDS children these we care without fees , as we are located in a region which is on the Top of HIV/AIDS leading region in Tanzania, everyday three months more than 250 new infection , at our project we take care of these children not all but few children we have are living with Infection, It is so sad , but we try our best to give them better nutrition , we care only children from families with poor economic backgroung.
You may consider collecting some winter jackets, shoes,backpack,Clothes for them,games, play materials to feel loved as the project itself can not suffice needs of everyone as we small at the start.
You may also help the Daycare Centre and Nursery School project with Baby Toys,,Teddy Stuffs,puzlles,old or new laptop (we just need 5 for a computer rooms),Flascards,Couling books,pencils,Blackboards wallpapers, balls,sport materials, USB stick, TV ,(these are for teaching),slides play,swings, and other learning and teaching materials for kids,
