Tanzania
"This experience completely exceeded all my expectations. It was valuable as a cultural, professional and personal experience. It has opened my eyes to new possibilities and opened my mind to new cultures. It has broadened my horizons and improved and enriched my life. I took a leap of faith going so far from home by myself and it paid off ten-fold. I will never forget Tanzania or the people there and I can't wait to do another CCS program."Sarah Bond, Tanzania volunteer
Why Volunteer in Tanzania?
As a volunteer in Tanzania you will gain access to some of Africa's greatest sights, including Mount Kilimanjaro and the national parks which teem with wildlife, and
you will get to meet people from some of the tribes that inhabit the country, including the Maasai, the Sukuma, the Chagga, and the Meru.
You will experience the warmth of Tanzanian people as you begin to refer to them in the traditional way, calling them by family titles such as mama and dada, meaning "mother" and "sister." You will get the opportunity to learn about the unique Tanzanian culture through guest speakers, Swahili language instruction and daily chats with people in the local villages.
From the people you volunteer with 
to your new neighbors near the CCS Home-Base, you'll enjoy new friends, new challenges, and new perspectives on life in Tanzania. If you're looking to truly immerse yourself in the local culture, this is the experience you're looking for.
