Working at WEEDO has been a lifechanging experience. Rehema, the founder of this project is an incredible Person, and I am so lucky I got to know her. She really believes in changing the life and opportunities for as most Tanzanian girls as she can, the mayority of them coming from extremely hard backgrounds. This School is a Safe space for them to create a brighter future and empower them to dream big. They need people to believe in them. The house, the school, the times, the meals, everything is great and the Tanzanian people is extra welcoming. I will miss the girls and the team so much.

Minha experiência foi incrível, e espero retornar. Houve muitas oportunidades de se conectar com as garotas e realmente fazer a diferença. Minha maior preocupação era que algumas informações no Worldpackers estivessem desatualizadas, e as coisas eram mais caras do que eu esperava. Meu principal conselho é falar com a Rehema se você tiver alguma dificuldade; ela está constantemente trabalhando para melhorar as coisas para todos. No geral, esta experiência lhe dará um gostinho da VIDA REAL Tanzânia, que nem sempre é fácil ou confortável, mas se você estiver aberto a novas experiências e for apaixonado por servir a comunidade, você vai se divertir!

Overall, I am glad that I chose to join WEEDO and I had a valuable experience. Rehema is an inspiring woman who is doing important work. However, the communication between the organisation and the volunteers could be improved. On several occasions, I was left to figure things out on my own without clear guidance, or I was expected to do tasks that had not been explained beforehand. There was also a lack of introduction and overall structure. As a result, I feel that my time and skills were not used as effectively as they could have been for the benefit of the girls.

Mi experiencia Weedo fue positiva, siento que las chicas pudieron aprender, sin embargo su aprendizaje hubiese podido ser mayor si dominaran mejor el inglés y tuvieran una mayor motivación. Las instalaciones quedan retirado de la casa de hospedaje, así que tuve que aprender a coger transporte público lo cual te permite incorporarte más en la cultura, sin embargo toda la dinámica diaria me la explico otra voluntaria, casi nunca tuve contacto con la anfitriona. Agradezco la experiencia y me voy con muchos aprendizajes.

I did my internship (2 months) at WEEDO in the field of communication. It was an incredible experience, far beyond my expectations. I learned a lot in so many areas…Everyone, the staff, the girls and Rehema were very kind and welcoming to me. Rehema is a very nice person, very welcoming, she made me discover a lot of things. I created great relationships with the girls and if I had to do it again, I would definitely do it again! I am happy to have done my internship with this the organization. Kigamboni is a very nice place to live and there is a very beautiful beach nearby. Thank you WEEDO! :)

Teaching at WEEDO was a beautiful experience since the girls were really welcoming, loving, and eager to learn. The open communication with Rehema and reoccurring feedback meetings made me feel supported and in good hands. Also the ongoing optimization of processes in the the organization showed that the positive longterm impact on the girls is the number one priority and not taken lightly. Overall, I was able to learn a lot about the culture, connect with locals, and share lots of beautiful moments I will never forget and thought me a lot.

First of all Weedo staff is very nice tracking your arrival and helping. Then, you really get involved with the culture. People is so nice. I was teaching basic computer to the girls and felt so happy to see their progress. It was sooo hard to say goodbye. I recommend to anyone that really wants to get immerse with Tanzanian and African culture, know other volunteers, bond with the girls/students and staff, and help in the organization girls. Pd. I did 1 month only but recommend to stay at least 2. To have better progress with girls/students. Love you Weedo

I'm grateful for the opportunity to be part of this amazing the organization. The main mission is to provide young women with skills they can use to be independent and support themselves. WEEDO really cares about the girls there and everyone is very opened to new ideas that could help with achieving their mission and goals. I wish I could have stayed longer and do more. The location was perfect, you can immerse yourself in the local culture (I recommend going for a run with the local community even if you're not a runner) but you're also close enough to the city. A life changing experience for me!

I had a really great, trully immersive and life changing experience here. It was everything I dreamed of and more. I am really grateful for the structure the host and WEEDO created to help volunteers have a great living. I slept comfortably every night and over time, the place of stay started to feel like home. Though living in Tanzania was an adjustment, I am very grateful for the host and the the organization for doing their best to make me feel cared for. Rehema was always on call and took the time to build a strong relationship with me during my time here. Thank you for everything.
