During the time I volunteered for Fountain of Hope, I had an unforgettable time. Shora Kauluka was a great host during the two weeks, and the village Mlenga was a really welcoming place to stay. I attended the sports program of Fountain of Hope, which contained giving football trainings to the youth in the different villages in and around Mlenga. The gratefulness of the children was really impressive to experience. Also attending the football game of local club FC Michonya was a unforgettable experience. Although the main volunteer work was about giving football training to the youth, the foundation does a lot more. As a volunteer, Shora also took me to those activities. The events around preventing child marriages for young girls were really impressing to be a part of. Also the congress about women empowerment was really interesting to attend and shows the broad impact that Shora and Fountain of Hope have made in the Malawian society. So "Zikomo" to the foundation and Shora for a wonderful time!

There is nothing that I can complain about, even if I looked through every minute detail of my experiences with this company. I loved my experience so much, I have spent the past 3 summers in Uganda with Go Volunteer Africa doing different voluntary projects. The staff make sure that you are well looked after and cared for, and make sure you never feel alone even when you are so far from home. This company has given me the opportunity to meet so many amazing people and create so many great memories. I have done both the teaching sports project and the building work project, and in both projects there was no shortage of work to do, and the staff were friendly and welcoming. The staff in Uganda and at office are extremely helpful, and go out of their way to fix any problem that arises. The staff in Uganda are on hand 24 hours a day and would have no qualms to take you to a doctor in the middle of the night if you felt unwell. I had the pleasure of staying with a wonderful host family, which I stay in touch with. They welcomed me into their home like one of their own, and for that I will be forever grateful. Thank you go volunteer Africa!

I had a great experience volunteering at Amazing Grace Widows and Orphans in Monduli, near Arusha. Winny and her family were so welcoming and I enjoyed volunteering at the local school. For volunteers looking for an authentic Tanzanian experience, this is the one for you. Thank you again Winny!

I didn't know anything about the Go Volunteer Africa before I decided to apply to volunteer in Uganda, and I chose them because it was the best option that I found through researching many different options. I wanted to do something hands one. Go Volunteer Africa was the best value for time and money. The team that runs Go Volunteer Africa are extremely passionate about their work in the rural communities and share the little they have with others. I highly recommend this organization to other volunteers. During my 8 weeks volunteering at Go Volunteer Africa, I was afforded the best experience of my lifetime, I got involved in a number of projects and visited many different locations within Uganda, and I got a rich experience of what life is really like. Looking forward to visit the team again.
