WHo can volunteer?

Our volunteers come from every corner of the world, in all colours, shapes and sizes!  You bring enthusiasm, English language skills and professional expertise.  In return we offer a warm welcome, friendship and an amazing experience that you'll remember for the rest of your life. You can live with us, share our food and learn Swahili. Unlike some volunteer programmes we don't charge for the experience, but you have to fund your own travel, accommodation and food.

There are a variety of experiences on offer at ZL4LF including working in the classroom as a teacher or classroom assistant, teaching langues,  gardening, maintenance, office work and administration, helping in our bicycle business, fund-raising, IT, drama and the arts. Whatever your skills, please get in touch with us and we’ll work out a mutually valuable experience.

The practicalities...

We're open all year, even during holidays and festivals!  Come for as long as you can or just for the day.  The longer you stay, the more you’ll get out of your visit. You can find us in Fuoni, which is 15-20 minutes drive from Stone Town. 

We can arrange accommodation including home stay near to our school.  If you’d like to know more, please contact ZanzibarL4LF@gmail.com
