Our Women and Girls’ Volunteer Program in Tanzania gives volunteers an opportunity to support community initiatives that promote education, skills development, confidence, and greater opportunities for women and girls. Volunteers work alongside local organizations and community members, contributing their time and skills to projects based on local needs.
Volunteers can participate in activities such as girls’ education, women’s skills development, mentorship, entrepreneurship support, life-skills sessions, and community awareness activities. The exact activities depend on the project and the needs of the community.
Support educational activities that encourage girls to stay engaged in learning and develop confidence in their abilities. Volunteers may assist with reading, English practice, educational activities, mentorship, and discussions that encourage personal development.
Volunteers can support practical skills initiatives that help women develop knowledge and abilities that can contribute to their personal and economic development. Activities may include basic business skills, computer skills, handicrafts, entrepreneurship, or other locally identified areas.
Help create supportive spaces where girls and young women can develop confidence, communication skills, leadership abilities, and practical knowledge for everyday life. Volunteers can contribute through discussions, workshops, creative activities, and one-to-one or group mentoring where appropriate.
Volunteers may participate in community-based awareness activities covering topics relevant to women and girls, depending on the project. These initiatives can encourage positive conversations around education, personal development, opportunity, and community participation.
Share your time, support women and girls, and become part of a community-focused volunteer experience in Tanzania.
The program is suitable for students, graduates, professionals, families, retirees, and individuals who are passionate about supporting women and girls. Previous volunteering experience is not always required, although relevant skills in education, mentoring, business, communication, or community work can be valuable.
Volunteers should be 18 years or older, responsible, respectful, flexible, and willing to work closely with local communities. A positive attitude, cultural sensitivity, commitment to the project, and willingness to learn are essential.
Volunteer placements can range from one week to several months, depending on your availability and the needs of the selected project. Longer stays can provide more opportunities to become involved in ongoing women’s and girls’ initiatives.

Reviews from Our Clients
EXCELLENT Based on 4 reviews caren2024-12-17Verified Breathtaking experiences, trustworthy agency that responds to every personal request. Everything top We did a 7 day private safari in the jeep. John our driver took us safely through the most rough roads and Joseph as a guide really made everything possible and brought country and people closer and we saw and experienced more than the big five first hand. The trip went smoothly and the accommodations were good. It is important that they are not far away from the route, as for the roads detours of only 20 km mean 1-2 hours of driving time....We have booked everything from Germany by mail and after a deposit paid the trip on site in arusha. We had a lot of fun and incredible experiences. Experiences Alessandro G2024-11-06Verified Amazing experience My experience with Astro Safari was fantastic, we did a 24h Safari between Saturday and Sunday and it was an incredible experience that I recommend to everyone. The guide and the food were excellent and I couldn't have asked for better Margherita M2024-10-21Verified THE MOST BEAUTIFUL EXPERIENCE OF MY LIFE It was the best experience of my life. A special thanks to our guides, they have been amazing to us. I stayed just two nights and three days but we saw all the animals of the savanna! The hardest animal to see for us was the lion, but our guides tried since the last moment to find them, and finally after some hours, we saw two beautiful lions laying under a tree , it was amazing. The food was great and also the tent was very comfortable. At the end of the experience, while we were leading out of the Serengeti park, we saw the most incredible thing: many baby lions with their moms and they dads. I strongly recommend this company, they have been very kind and friendly to us, it was amazing and I am very thankful to them. Amy L2024-10-21Verified Amazing safari We had an amazing time on our two day, one night safari in the Serengeti National Park. The trip was well organised, and we saw so much wildlife! The food provided was very good and a great mix of different things. The accommodation was comfortable and clean. Overall an excellent budget-friendly safari. Thank you very much to our driver and ‘Mr Buffalo’! I would definitely recommend Astro Safaris!
