My experience in the orphanage has been the best, I couldn't have been luckier with Ayubu, the children in the orphanage, the mamas (women who are there 24/7), the director... From the beginning, I have felt loved by everyone, always considering volunteers for activities and excursions, or inviting us to events in Arusha... I am extremely happy with the month I spent in the villages of Kwa Refu and Shangarai and everything I have learned from each and every one of them. Without a doubt, a part of my heart will always stays at the orphanage. I will definitely repeat this experience !

My time with the children the organization orphanage was very special and an amazing experience. As a volunteer you have many responsibilities over these children and you grow to becoming an important role in their life. I was so warmly welcomed by the entire community involved with the orphanage and am very grateful for this beautiful experience. Besides the work with the children there are many lovely things to do in the area of Arusha such as safari and Kilimanjaro, of which our host was so helpful with organizing our group to go and do these activities. Nakupenda the organization Orphanage! See you soon!

Literalmente lo mejor que me ha pasado en la vida. Ayubu es un gran anfitrion y mejor persona, la verdad que con el nos sentiamos muy seguras y alfinal contruimos una gran familia entre todos los que estuvimos. El orfanato es expectacular, los niños son geniales y las mamas son las mejores. Tengo muy claro que volvere porque parte de mi corazon se quedo alli. Por siempre Cactus hause experience🥰🥰🥰🥰 Dejo una familia en arusha, sinceramente gracias por todo.
