The work of Walking with Maasai is very varied with something of interest for everyone. There are many ways to get involved from helping with fundraising to visiting us in Kenya and sharing your skills and experiences. Here are some ideas that may suit you:

 

Fundraising

We require funds to run the many areas of our operation, from paying staff salaries in Kenya to maintaining the 4×4 vehicles to working capital for our initiatives. If you have ideas for fundraising events or would like to run any such events for us, we’d love to hear from you.

 

Participate in our projects

Each of our projects relies on volunteers to make them successful. If you would like to come to Kenya to help build houses, a bridge, an airstrip or an Eco-camp, let us know. Not only will you find your visit satisfying as you contribute to supporting the Maasai community in Olorte, you’ll also have an opportunity to spend time in one of the most beautiful places on our planet, with opportunities to experience the most exciting wildlife.

 

Sharing your skills and experiences

So many of us take our skills for granted and even feel that we don’t have what it takes to change the world. But Walking with Maasai can provide you with opportunities to use your skills and life experiences to really make a difference. Even things like facilitating meetings or helping to develop a simple business idea can change families’ lives in the community for the better. Of course, vocational skills like teaching, medicine, business and engineering can be directly applied even on a short visit.

If you’d like to know more about any of these opportunities, please get in touch by emailing us at hennie@walkingwithmaasai.org.
