    Overview

    On the green meadows and rolling hills of Tanzania's Great Rift Valley, Karimu International Help Foundation works with villagers on school construction and health education projects they have requested. Climax your eleven days in the village with three breathtaking days of safari.

    Karimu International Help Foundation, founded by two high school teachers, seeks to alleviate poverty by renovating schools, improving education and access to health in the rural villages of Bacho and Dareda.

    Every year Karimu partners with Inspire Worldwide and takes volunteers to work side-by-side with villagers, and share in their lives. Because strong friendships are formed, Karimu often has repeat volunteers.
