We had the most amazing time with our volunteer group from the UK.
For two weeks they worked in various projects like schools, an orphanage, a safe house for girls and on a medical outreach! They taught, painted walls, gave out medicine and played with the children. They were really busy and definitely left their tracks behind.
It was so nice having them and all we can say is: Asante sana na Karibuni tena (thank you very much and welcome again).
Your Projects Overland Team
In the last three days we welcomed three new volunteers and interns. Julia Kaufmann will stay four weeks in Moshi and work in the Kilimanjaro Orphanage. Maeve and Lisa will be based in Arusha. The Pippi House, a safe house for girls and women will get a two weeks support from Maeve and Lisa will gain experience in the African Court of Human and People’s Right for eight weeks.
Karibuni sana Arusha and Moshi. We wish you a wonderful stay in Tanzania, friendships which are lasting for a life time and life changing experiences.

Taylor & Sidney in our office
Taylor and Sidney from the US are supporting our community work in Arusha.
Taylor is working in the Pippi House, a safe house for girls. She is helping the girls with their homework, taking care of their children so the mothers can attend school and assisting with the counseling lessons.
Sidney is gaining experiences in the African Court of Human and People’s Right, where she is doing office work and gaining an inside look of how a court works in Tanzania.
Claudine and Sandrine are our medical interns from Canada. They will stay in Lushoto for a two moth internship. They are volunteering in the Lushoto District Hospital learning about how to treat patients when resources are limited.
We wish all four a nice stay in Tanzania, life changing experiences in their projects and friendships that will last a lifetime!
Karibuni sana!

On Saturday we went for a Waterfall Hike with our volunteers. It was such a nice day 🙂
The journey from Arusha is only about 7km and involves some steep ground and some clambering, but is quite manageable.
We had a lot of fun!
Yesterday our two Belgium volunteers Jana and Annabel started their work at Pippi House – a safe house for girls.
All in all they will stay for three months, but they are going to work in three different placements for one month each.
They love spending time with the kids there! 🙂
Our volunteer Glynis from the UK started teaching at Haradali School today – she is so excited about the kids and everyday life of the school.

The Albino African people have been attacked, killed, dismembered, had their graves dug up and desecrated all for the belief the witch doctors have passed on to the people, their body parts carry magic powers.
On the black market a complete “set” ears, tongue, nose, genitals, all four limbs can sell for $75,000. Children are the most affected by this horrific crime and although Tanzania has made some progress but it has been slow and many families are still displaced and living in fear.
We must not although the spotlight to leave the Albino African people, Tanzania must know the International world is watching and demanding they protect the Albino African children.
