We
understand that finding a suitable volunteering organization can be a very
difficult job. If you are looking for an impactful, transparent, active and
diverse organization established and run by local people you might be
interested in Kipepeo! With the goal of
improving their local community, this affordable volunteering opportunity will
allow you to live in rural, Western Kenya while working, learning and
experiencing the local culture.
KIPEPEO:
Kipepeo
Community Empowerment Program is a community based organization whose aim is to
empower, inform and improve the standards of living of the local communities of
Emuhaya District in Western Kenya. It was started in 2009 by three young Kenyan
men and has been growing to reach out to more and more people since then.
Kipepeo works on a wide range of projects including; a Kindergarten where we
teach and feed over 40 children (mainly orphans) every day, extremely cheap
computer training that serves to empower people through the use of technology,
microfinance and business training for local village groups, educational talks
in rural schools, rehabilitation of street children... Kipepeo is run by
volunteers, most of them local but we also welcome international volunteers.
International volunteers bring a different perspective and perhaps new skills
and knowledge so we are very happy when we receive volunteers from abroad.
WORLD OF
KIPEPEO:
Recently we
have started the World of Kipepeo project which consists of a new web page primarily
targeted towards international volunteers and helping them in the process of
becoming a volunteer at Kipepeo. It has information about Kipepeo, step by step
guidance to join and assistance from former volunteers.
