    Om programmet

    Make an impact; contribute to sustainable development and have a genuine cultural experience with a passionate and professional African responsible travel company.

    Volunteer to help care for underprivileged children in Cape Town, South Africa. Emerging from its apartheid history South Africa’s townships are experiencing the effects of high unemployment, HIV/AIDS, poverty and substance abuse. Many children are vulnerable and are being disadvantaged by not being able to access education.

    This project aims to provide support to some or the pre-school centres that have opened in townships to assist these children. You will be based at one of these centres and may help with hands-on teaching, organising activities, caring for the children, and serving them food.

    YOUR ROLE

    Your role is primarily based in pre-schools in the communities of Imizamo Yethu or Hangberg. Some of the pre-schools are open a full day, whilst others in the morning only, which means you will participate in the afternoons at youth projects providing support to disadvantaged children.

    As a volunteer, you may be working in a para-parental role teaching children life skills that their missing or overwhelmed families are struggling with. At the pre-schools you may work with a local care giver or teacher assisting them and taking on responsibilities as your skills and experience allows.

    As a volunteer you may get involved in many of the following activities:

    • Teaching English and maths and marking worksheets 
    • Leading role play and imagination activities
    • Designing activities that support the syllabus
    • Reading stories & facilitating learning through storytelling 
    • Giving support and attention to the children
    • Organising games & sports activities to help them learn
    • Assisting with preparing and serving of meals
    • Teaching basic life skills including teeth cleaning & hygiene 
    ITINERARY

    Day 1
    Fly into Cape Town International Airport (more details in “Arrivals” section in the South Africa Destination Brief) where you will be met by All Out Africa staff members who will transfer you to Hout Bay Backpackers, your home for the duration of the experience. It is a 45-60 minute journey from the airport to Hout Bay.

    Day 2
    The second day begins with an informative presentation that will brief you on all you need to know about the culture and country, how to effectively contribute during your volunteer experience, and what to expect.

    In the afternoon you will embark on a Township Tour with an expert local guide who will introduce you to life in a township. The tour takes place in Imizamo Yethu, one of the townships you may be volunteering in.

    Day 3
    Today you begin your volunteer project! The Project Coordinator will take you to and assist you in settling in at your project. After lunch you have another tour, this time through the Hangberg community. Your tour guide is a local leader who lives in the community and is involved in many of the youth interventions to encourage positive development.

    Day 4
    In the morning you will return to your morning project, and in the afternoon you may remain at your pre-school or if alternatively you may get involved in another project at one of our youth development centres.

    Day 5
    You’re now fully up and running as a volunteer, and will go to both your morning and afternoon projects!

    Day 6-7 and other weekends for the duration of your stay

    The first weekend of your experience you will be given a one-day bus ticket to the open top red bus tour, which is a great way to explore Cape Town and familiarise yourself on what you want to do!
