“The first time I went to Tanzania, I climbed Mount Kilimanjaro with two of my best friends—an incredible experience I’ll never forget. I’m so excited to return to Tanzania with ME to WE this year!”

– Spencer West, ME to WE Speaker and leadership facilitator

Imagine being an explorer. An adventurer. A leader of change. Imagine what it would be like to be part of one of the first groups to travel to Tanzania—building connections that will pave the way for groups of travellers to come. This is adventure to the max.

 

 

Your home-away-from-home is a tented camp in the heart of the savannah, with the stunning peaks of Mount Kilimanjaro towering in the distance. Joined by like-minded travellers, you’ll visit communities who are some of the first in the region to partner with Free The Children. Throughout your trip, spend time volunteering alongside local families on a Free The Children project like a new classroom or school library—share in a community’s energy and excitement at the start of this new partnership!

Meet and connect with people like Esther, a young student who grew up in the Maasai community of Engikaret. As a child, many of Esther’s family members didn’t want her to go to school, instead encouraging her parents to have their daughter married at a young age. But her parents were determined to see Esther complete her education. Now, seeing people in her community working alongside Free The Children to build a new school, Esther is full of renewed hope for the future, not just for herself but for generations to come. She’s so excited about working alongside travellers like you to build new classrooms in her community!

 

MaasaiFamily

Outside of the build site, every day of this trip is packed full of exciting new adventures! Soak in Maasai culture and the region’s unique history with unforgettable activities and experiences—spend time with a local men’s group and get to know their stories, train with a Maasai warrior and learn how to make a rungu, and share stories with a family over traditional Chai tea. Along the way, you’ll also get to take part in amazing adventures like a safari in Lake Manyara National Park, looking out for lions, elephants, zebras and more as you ride in a lorry with your Maasai guide. Trust us—this is an adventure you don’t want to miss!
