GIVE is an established leader in sustainable volunteer and adventure travel. We are dedicated to empowering local communities and awakening our volunteers.GIVE is passionate about creating safe, fun opportunities for volunteers to help build critical resources in impoverished areas, learn about other cultures, reflect on their own ability to empower marginalized communities, and ultimately become leaders in sustainable development.
Education Program: In a local school in Zanzibar, students only speak Swahili. National high school entrance tests are administered in English, which causes many students to fail their exams. Failing this exam, then, effectively ends their academic careers since there are no viable options to learn English and pass the exam. In response, GIVE is teaching English in the community in conjunction with a local NGO and, since our arrival, students' test scores have improved significantly and they continue to be eager to work with our volunteers.
School Construction: Currently there is no easily accessible school for residents of Cairo and Kiwengwa, Zanzibar (population 5,000). Per the community’s request, GIVE is in the process of constructing a joint nursery, primary, and technical/vocational school on community land. The Vice President of Zanzibar and Ministry of Education has agreed to provide teachers for the school once completed.
