Volunteering
with VFA gives you a chance to share your skills with rural people,
and participate in enhancing a change for a better tomorrow. Whether
a development tourist, a student in gap year, or just a professional
wanting to share your expertise, VFA will always give you a chance
to participate in development.
You
could volunteer in Kenya, Uganda and Tanzania, living and working in
the villages. You could choose to stay with an African family, learn
all their ways of life, and teach them your ways; take time off to
see the marvels of mother nature that East Africa can offer… and
all this could be within the span of two weeks to two years; the
length which we offer volunteer placements for.
Find
out now if we have opportunities for you to volunteer by writing to
the Volunteer Programmes Manager, Sebastian
Njagi. |

Sebastian
has been in the volunteer business for as long as VFA has been in
existence.
Although
he was highly involved in volunteer programmes all the way from
birth in his remote Tharaka District, it’s not until the year 2000
that he was recruited by VSO to work in India as a VSO Volunteer.
In
India Sebastian worked with Gram Vikas, and later with VSO Programme
Office.
Sebastian
later left for the UK to work on a Commonwealth Professional
Fellowship, where he worked with CSV Action Sunderland.
On
return to Kenya he continued with development of the VFA Volunteer
Programme, alongside in his community in Tharaka, where he
spearheaded the building of a community bridge. |
