SUI Tanzania Volunteer Program
The SUI Tanzania Volunteer Program gives local and international volunteers an opportunity to live, learn and serve alongside children and communities in Arusha, Tanzania. Volunteers become part of our day-to-day activities and support our work in education, child protection, mentorship, English learning, sports, games, creative activities and community outreach. Depending on their skills and interests, volunteers can help teach children, organize educational and recreational activities, share professional skills, support fundraising and awareness activities, assist with social media and documentation, or contribute ideas to our community projects. Beyond volunteering, we encourage cultural exchange, allowing volunteers to experience Tanzanian life, connect with local people and explore the beauty and culture of Arusha. At SUI Tanzania, we believe volunteering is not only about giving your time—it is about sharing knowledge, creating meaningful connections and helping children see greater possibilities for their future. Let Love Lead.
