Kilimanjaro Aid Project volunteers and interns assist impoverished African societies in developing children’s rights and under-school age education and life. We focus on working in orphanages and nursery schools. The program has ten key investment points: Invest to Save the Lives of Children and Women, Invest in Good Nutrition, Invest in Better Hygiene and Sanitation in Schools and Health Facilities, Invest in Early Childhood Development, Invest in Quality Education for all Children, Invest to Make Schools Safe, Invest to Protect Infants and Adolescent Girls from HIV, Invest to Reduce Teenage Pregnancy, Invest to Protect Children from Violence, Abuse, and Exploitation and Invest in Children with Disabilities. Contact us for more information or apply to the program. The UNICEF lead NGO team initiated the program. Today it’s a daily activity of Kilimanjaro Aid Project.
Interns and volunteers assist the orphanages in education, training programs and other activities. These orphanages are for children who have lost their parents, or the parents are not capable of taking care of their children. In the orphanages, you also work with our medical sector team.
They are assisting the village-level nursery school operations. The nursery schools we attend are for low-income families that cannot afford to get educated teachers for their children. In Tanzania, nursery schools are education oriented as that is the key focus to help their children to start primary education at the same level as middle-class families. This work will take place jointly with our education team volunteers.
