The idea is to Skill Whole CHild with life skills. We are looking at 3 areas: Head, Heart and Hands on learning. The Creatives in Arts and Sports are the most popular part of

Volunteers work in classrooms, choosing what ages and topics to teach. Traditional teaching in Uganda is rote learning and memorization. Our aim is to encourage teamwork, fun, literacy, creative and innovative learning in primary school students

Whether you’re interested in teaching, performing arts, sports, we have the right opportunities for you. Your experience with us will be both fulfilling and impact driven.

Agriculture:

Volunteers work alongside groups in their communal gardens. Expect to prepare soil, plant seeds, spread mulch, weed, harvest, and chase birds and other pests. Our aim is to teach efficient land use, organic pest control, and nutrition. Join the effort to plant thousands of fruit trees in Uganda! Fruit trees provide sustainable nutrition, income to families in poverty, & help clean the air, water, & soil.

Nutrition & Vegetable Gardening

Nutrition and vegetable gardening, cooking and community sanitation programs aim to support rural and peri urban public health in communities.

We teach and train individual homesteads how to have a home vegetable garden in a small space, and how to promote good nutrition in homesteads.

Community & Development:

Working in a community development is perhaps one of the most in-demand, challenging, and diverse volunteer opportunities available. Few things are more rewarding than immersing oneself in a new culture and empowering communities by helping them achieve the awareness necessary to have greater control over their financial, physical, environmental health. Community development breaks down into many different categories but is generally defined as social groups of people working together towards a common goal to build a stronger community.
