 Vacation with a Purpose
Nov 1 – 15, 2008
Working in partnership with Milele (a Kenyan musical group) and International Volunteer Partnerships, the American Foundation for Children with AIDS will be building a house for AIDS orphans in Nairobi, Kenya. Eighteen volunteers are needed to fill a team of big-hearted individuals who want to change the lives of people by giving them a decent place to call home.
While no construction experience is needed, we are looking for people who are willing to learn, to play, to laugh, and to change lives. Flexibility is a must. Cost is $1,950 plus airfare and includes food, in-country transportation, insurance, donation to AFCA’s work, snacks, and housing. As an aside, all money spent on accommodations will go directly to support the education of AIDS orphans!
