Are you looking for a challenge?
Join Brighter Communities Worldwide in Kenya and work alongside our Kenyan colleagues and community. Share your skills, learn from others and contribute to programmes supporting healthier, more resilient communities. Our volunteers come from different backgrounds and generations. Students, professionals and retired people are all welcome. You may bring professional or practical skills, or simply a willingness to learn, listen and take part. Volunteers travel and work as a team, supported by BCW before, during and throughout their visit.
What could I be involved in?
Depending on your skills and interests, you may:
- Facilitate Life Skills, Business Training
- Support Healthy Schools workshops
- Deliver Remote Emergency Care training
- Install smokeless stoves
- Share professional skills such as medicine, nursing, IT or media
- Contribute as a student, including students studying nursing, medicine or other subjects
Activities are planned around the needs of our programmes and the skills and experience volunteers bring.
