The Experience

As a small organization we are always looking at ways to build a solid system of accountability to manage our financial resources. At the moment we have no permanent accounting staff. We are looking out for a volunteer with an accounting/business background and skills to train our young team of staff to build a financial management system

My stay at the organization was fantastic. I assisted them with Social Media and taught computer skills. Every day I could join activities like playing football with the youth. There was also enough time to explore the surroundings and meet a lot of locals in Mpigi Town. A great place to learn, teach and explore Uganda.

Wow! This is a place where you know you'll come back. Can't put into words how nice everybody treated me and how nice people are in this community. It's amazing what they are doing here and you'll want to be part of it long after you left. Moses is an inspiration and a great human being, he has the vision of a true leader and he's a role model for everybody there. Thank you for letting me be part of your family! 🤗

La organización es una experiencia perfecta para viajar por primera vez a África, Mpigi es un sitio seguro y toda la comunidad de la organización cuida de que estés bien. El director de la asociación nos contó sus necesidades. en este caso en el programa de empoderamiento de la mujer y me dejó libremente crear y llevar a cabo el programa, ya que estoy formada para ello, estoy muy agradecida de la experiencia, fue un trabajo intenso pero dio sus frutos. Gracias a su mujer Kirabo conseguimos un safari a la mitad del precio de otras agencias, además nos llevaron de excursión y a comer
