Harrow Way African Adventures volunteering trip

41 students and 4 members of staff will be heading off to Zanzibar in July to take part in volunteer work at a local secondary school.

There are four core challenges at our partner schools

Overcrowded Classrooms

At nursery school level, it is not uncommon for classrooms to have 60 children and just one teacher.

Lack of Resources

Most of our partner schools cannot afford to provide their students with text books, stationery and sometimes even desks.

Inadequate Facilities

Most of our partner schools lack the facilities they need to provide a quality education to each child.

Food security

Most students who attend our partner schools come from families below the international poverty line, and very few will have three meals each day.

Our students are raising money to fund the projects they will be involved in during the trip. Students have individually raised money to attend the trip of a lifetime and now we are looking to support the resources needed to make a difference whilst we are there.
