We were welcomed with open arms, and are now in the process of deciding on the best way to go about developing a new community development programme in this area.

Whilst at Kili’s base town of Moshi, we also met with a representative of the Kilimanjaro Porters’ Assistance Association who educate tourists on how their safari companies should be treating their porters when the climb Africa’s highest mountain, as well as AIDS and English teaching to the porters themselves, and providing them with free climbing gear that they might otherwise never be given.

We hope to offer volunteers the chance to participate in various projects in this area early next year – so look out for new developments at our Tanzania volunteer page in the near future.
