🏠 Accommodation on site

ACCOMMODATION AND MEALS 
• Volunteers will stay in a house provided by the local people with very basic living conditions. 
• Volunteers have an obligation to climb down the level of the people with the aim of exposure to development challenges. 
• KVDA will provide foodstuffs and volunteers will cook their own meals in turns. 
• Water is available from springs and it is recommended that drinking water should be boiled or medicated. Mineral water available at supermarkets is also recommended. 
• The Government policy to install ICT in primary schools has seen connectivity to the national power grid for most educational institutions in Kenya and this makes it easy for volunteers to use electric appliances while at the project. 
• Furthermore, we invite you to bring typical food, spices, drinks, games and music from your country (for an intercultural evening) – and a lot of motivation!
