About Us

Nestled in the serene village on the slopes of Mount Meru, just 15km from Arusha town, Milele Moyo Orphanage is on a mission to provide a brighter future for children who need it most. We believe that a child’s early educational experiences lay the foundation for lifelong success. Our approach nurtures curiosity, creativity, and essential skills like teamwork, communication, and self-expression through activities such as building, dancing, singing, drawing, and more. At Milele, we prepare young minds to excel in their education and beyond.

Volunteer Experience

Volunteering with us offers far more than just an opportunity to give back – it’s a chance to immerse yourself in the heart of Tanzania. You’ll stay with a local family, embracing the rich culture, traditions, and language of this beautiful country. Whether you’re working directly with the children at our orphanage or helping at our community center, every task you take on will be meaningful, from teaching subjects like English and Math to helping children develop life skills and taking part in fun outdoor activities. Every day is an opportunity to change a life.

Why Arusha?

Arusha is not only the gateway to Tanzania’s stunning national parks, but it’s also a city rich in culture and history. Sip the finest coffee, explore vibrant markets, or venture to iconic spots like Mount Kilimanjaro, the Serengeti, and the Ngorongoro Crater. With its peaceful environment, breathtaking views, and fresh air, Arusha is the perfect backdrop for a fulfilling and inspiring volunteer experience.

What to Expect

Life in Tanzania offers challenges and rewards. While you might experience occasional power outages, water supply issues, or slow internet, these are far outweighed by the warmth, hospitality, and generosity of the Tanzanian people. You’ll enjoy traditional meals made with fresh, local ingredients, and stay in a private room with an en-suite bathroom for your comfort. Here, you will experience true Tanzanian hospitality and build connections that last a lifetime.

Activities & Impact

Each day will be filled with educational and recreational activities that make a real difference. From teaching children essential subjects like English, Math, and Science to organizing fun outdoor play and offering emotional support, every task contributes to shaping the future of these children. At the end of each day, you’ll feel the satisfaction of knowing you’ve had a direct and positive impact on the lives of the children and the wider community.

Adventure Awaits

Tanzania is a land of natural beauty and rich culture, with endless opportunities for adventure. Whether it’s the stunning landscapes of Mount Kilimanjaro and Mount Meru, exploring vibrant Maasai culture, or visiting nearby waterfalls, hot springs, and museums, your time in Tanzania will be both impactful and memorable. We are here to help you plan exciting excursions and ensure you experience the best of this amazing country.
