WHo can volunteer?

Volunteers from all around the world, with diverse backgrounds, skills, and passions, are welcome at ZL4LF! Whether you bring enthusiasm, English language proficiency, or professional expertise, we’ll make sure you have an unforgettable experience. In return, we offer a warm, welcoming community, lasting friendships, and a chance to immerse yourself in our vibrant culture. Live with us, enjoy local meals, and even learn Swahili!

Unlike many volunteer programs, we don't charge fees, but volunteers are responsible for their travel, accommodation, and food expenses.

There’s no shortage of ways you can contribute at ZL4LF. Whether you're teaching in the classroom, assisting with languages, gardening, handling office work, helping with our bicycle business, fundraising, or supporting drama and the arts, your skills will make a difference. We’ll work together to create an experience that benefits both you and our community.
