Volunteer Abroad in Malawi: Volunteering Opportunities

Volunteering Abroad in Malawi: The Republic of Malawi is a small, impoverished yet incredibly beauty country in southeastern Africa. It is one of the most densely populated African countries, which remains heavily dependent on agriculture. Malawi is surrounded by Mozambique, Zambia, and Tanzania. Lake Malawi, formerly Lake Nyasa, occupies most of the country's eastern border, 365 miles long fringed with beautiful beaches and traditional fishing villages.

We offer volunteer placements in northern Malawi in Mzuzu and Nkhata Bay which focus on orphans, children?s education, HIV prevention and caring for the elderly.

The northern shores and villages of Lake Malawi are among the country's most beautiful and least visited. The north is much less populated than the south and the beaches here are far more remote. Miles of pristine white sand are interspersed with jagged rock formations and charming fishing villages, such as Nkhata Bay

In the south, we have projects around the cities of Lilongwe and Blantyre, as well as surrounding towns and rural villages. . The poverty experienced in these areas is not just a lack of money but also the inability to access basic needs, such as health care and health facilities, voluntary HIV counseling and testing, as well as basic quality education for all of its children. Our programs support street children and orphans, teaching English, HIV/AID prevention, health care clinics and care for the elderly.

Malawi is the fifth poorest country in the world, with a government education system sorely lacking in both funds and teachers. HIV/AIDS and malaria are widespread in Malawi and there is poor access to medical treatment throughout the country.

Our programs allow you to take part in meaningful community service work, while discovering the people, sights, smells and tastes of Malawi.

Volunteering in Malawi is a way to totally immerse yourself in Sub Saharan African culture.

This is a great opportunity to make life-long friends, learn a new culture from the inside out and discover that one person really can make a difference.
