My time at SYI was extremely valuable and I can't wait to return! From the moment I arrived, I truly felt welcomed and at home. Thank you to everyone at the organization who made this experience comfortable and memorable for me, as well as Joan at the guesthouse for her delicious cooking and hospitality. I spent a month here and could stay even longer. It only took me a few days to adjust to the culture and life here, but once I did, I felt extremely immersed in a way I otherwise would not have. The organization is run so well with fantastic leadership and local volunteers. Thank you SYI!!

Volunteering at the project in Kenya was an amazing and transformative experience. The organization is very flexible and gives you the freedom to create projects that matter to you and the community. I was able to organize a fundraising campaign that helped send children to school and also lead a Girls' Empowerment session with the girls. The team is welcoming, supportive, and open to new ideas. I highly recommend this experience to anyone looking to make a real impact while learning and growing at the same time.

SYI was an amazing experience. The kids are so joyful and their energy is contagious. Volunteers have a lot of autonomy to do whatever the project they want. The accommodation was clean and safe. You're really immersed in the local culture and community, it was an eye-opening experience. I had a great time and grew close with the other volunteers as well!

This experience was really special. You get as close as possible to living a local life in Nairobi and truly see different sides of life here. I spent 2 weeks here, and gained so much knowledge about life in the slums and in Nairobi. I had so many great experiences and made wonderful friendships. I can really recommend this if you are looking for an authentic experience of life in Kenya

My time volunteering with SYI was stimulating, memorable, and extremely enjoyable. Helping out at the organisation, the hospital, and the local schools is an authentic, eye opening experience which is challenging, albeit rewarding. I'm grateful to have met and shared my time with numerous fellow travellers from all over the world. Big thank you to Joshua (and rest of the team), he is really caring, understanding and works hard to ensure the best experience for the volunteers. I would highly recommend the project, it is a big family!!

My experience as a volunteer with SYI organization was amazing ! The children are so sweet and affectionate, spending time with them was an absolute joy. The activities are really varied (English, art, music, sports, IT…) and you can also bring your own ideas, the association is very flexible and supportive. I stayed in the volunteer's house which was clean and comfortable. Joan took such good care of us, preparing breakfast every morning and delicious African dish in the evening. I recommend this experience to anyone who wants to live something authentic and truly impactful.

My stay at SYI in Kahawa West was truly eye-opening. Living and working in the heart of the slum allowed me to see life from a new perspective. The community and the kids are super kind and welcoming. The SYI team welcomed me with open arms and I felt supported and included from day one. I also had an amazing time with the other volunteers . We shared meaningful experiences, laughs and memories I'll carry with me for a long time. If you're open-minded, flexible and want to grow personally while making a small impact, I can truly recommend this experience. I wish I could have stayed longer!
