This hands-on experience allows you to work alongside local leaders and organizations to improve the quality of life in under-resourced communities—one project, one partnership, and one person at a time.
Why Community Development in Kenya?
Many Kenyan communities, especially in rural and informal settlements, face challenges such as limited access to clean water, poor infrastructure, unemployment, and lack of essential services. Through community-driven initiatives, you’ll help create lasting impact and support local development goals.

Depending on the needs of the community and your skills, activities may include:
- Assisting with infrastructure projects (e.g., building classrooms, toilets, or water tanks)
- Supporting local NGOs with planning, administration, and outreach
- Teaching life skills, entrepreneurship, or vocational training
- Organizing health awareness, sanitation, or environmental campaigns
- Collaborating with youth groups, women’s cooperatives, or farmer associations
