The Hecasa Volunteering Programme offers flexible participation options to suit your schedule and goals. Whether you are looking for a short immersive experience or a longer-term commitment, we provide three programme durations: Short-Term, Medium-Term, and Long-Term.
Our programme fees are structured to cover accommodation, meals, orientation, project coordination, and a basic introduction to Swahili. Fees also include airport pick-up and drop-off from Arusha or Kilimanjaro International Airport, ensuring a smooth start and end to your volunteer journey.
Optional add-ons such as weekend safaris, cultural visits, and excursions are available at an additional cost, allowing you to explore the beauty of Tanzania while making a meaningful contribution to local communities.
Whether you choose a few weeks or several months, our programmes are designed to offer hands-on experience, cultural immersion, and lasting impact, all while providing a safe, supportive, and comfortable environment for international volunteers.
