Building with underprivileged communities in Nakuru, Kenya

General Info

Simple housing is in short supply in Kenya and with no scheme in place to help poverty stricken locals, which means that those who can’t afford housing often have to make do with life on the streets.

Your help is needed to assist with essential building work and community renovation; this can range from building or repairing classrooms, orphanages and care centres to building homes for families who need a safe refuge.

Schedules and work will vary according to what is needed at the project and when you arrive. You will generally work on the project for around 6 hours a day, Monday to Friday, with your weekends free to explore the incredible natural beauty of Nakuru.
