Volunteering in Kenya is not some new phenomenon. People have been volunteering in Africa for over 50 years now. Whether it’s volunteering in Nairobi or volunteering in rural Africa there is something for everybody. Africa’s population has recently risen over 1 billion people and over 50% of these people live below the poverty line. The people that really need the help rarely receive it from the government as a lot of countries within Africa as corrupt. Volunteering is one of the best ways to aid the people in this struggle and to help them fight poverty and disease. It has a guaranteed success rate and all the local people benefit from this method of teaching and learning.

South Africa being nominated to host the World Cup is not only a huge achievement for the country it is also a great responsibility for the continent. It shows the rest of the world has trust in Africa to host such a huge sporting event. Even though the trust has been given to Africa they have abused it by knocking down apartment blocks and shanty towns in order to build new stadiums and facilities to host the world cup. It does not care about its own people and only cares about how the rest of the world perceives it.

People are not only volunteering at this years world cup but are participating in volunteer projects all over the continent from Egypt in the north to Zimbabwe in the south. The continent is teeming with volunteers who have come from all over the world to help in any way they can. Volunteering can help boost your morale, your motivation, self esteem and can even change your perception of Africa. It is truly remarkable what can be achieved by volunteering. Why not give it a go and volunteer in Africa today?
