Volunteer Uganda

If you are considering a period of voluntary work in Uganda not only are there a myriad of opportunities from healthcare, HIV awareness and prevention, orphanage work, school and education, family strengthening and water projects etc but no voluntary work experience would be complete without exploring this lesser known area of the continent known as the "Pearl of Africa".

From safaris to visits to beautiful lakes that lie embedded deep within the Rift Valley there is so much to see and do. If staying in the south-west of Uganda, you can also easily go gorilla trekking or pay visits to Rwanda, Tanzania and the Democratic Republic of Congo. If you run or know of a volunteer work project in Uganda let us know by contacting us here. We look forward to hearing from you!
