Description of role: Project Play: Tanzania 2025
Are you ready to blend purpose with adventure? Join our trusted charity partner, and NGO, Play Action International for an extraordinary 4-week journey in Tanzania that will both enrich lives and fulfil your dreams. This immersive project combines impactful volunteering with the exhilarating challenge of climbing Africa’s highest peak, Mount Kilimanjaro.
Your adventure begins in the heart of Tanzania, where you'll dive into meaningful volunteer work. Engage in community development projects that range from building essential playground infrastructure to supporting local schools and inspiring youth play programs. Your efforts will directly uplift Tanzanian communities, offering you the chance to experience the joy of giving back and witness firsthand the transformative power of your contributions.
After making a profound impact, it's time to focus on an exhilarating personal challenge. Prepare to lace up your hiking boots and tackle Mount Kilimanjaro via the breathtaking Machame route. This renowned path will guide you through a stunning variety of ecosystems, from lush rainforests to stark alpine deserts, culminating in the awe-inspiring Uhuru Peak. Standing atop Africa’s highest summit, you’ll be rewarded with panoramic views and a deep sense of accomplishment.
This project offers more than just a chance to help others; it’s a gateway to experiencing the unparalleled beauty of Tanzania. Journey through vibrant villages, witness the majestic Kilimanjaro, and achieve a bucket-list goal that tests both your endurance and spirit. Forge lasting connections with local communities and fellow volunteers while creating memories that will stay with you forever. Don’t miss this opportunity to make a meaningful impact and conquer one of nature’s greatest wonders.
Funding opportunities could be available to you to subsidise personal travel expenses, but not always guaranteed and up to the discretion of the university and eligibility criteria.
