What we do
Our programs are owned and managed by us. We offer you the opportunity to participate in anything ranging from programs in education and community support and development, to adventure and leisure travel, to wildlife and environmental conservation.
We are not passive spectators but encourage a βget your hands dirtyβ approach. Our programs are not photo ops but require being actively involved. We believe in putting in more than we can get out, however general consensus from participants always speak of being enriched beyond expectations along with numerous testimonies of life changing experiences.
