This program offers volunteers the opportunity to contribute to a variety of inspirational community based projects.

Be inspired by South Africa's diverse culture, its colourful heritage and variety of cultures and traditions. Plus, be the inspiration to underprivileged children, make friends for life, leave a valuable footprint in the community and depart the country feeling satisfied and fulfilled - all in one of the most breathtaking areas of South Africa.

Multiple Projects - Volunteers experience all aspects of community volunteering

Work with children under the age of six in our Pre-Schools Teaching Program .

Help teenagers and young kids with problem backgrounds learn the skills to ensure a brighter future for themselves in our Youth Centre Development Project.

Give the gift of the English language to groups of individuals wanting to better their lives.

Be part our HIV / AIDS & TB Awareness Program, providing education and care to poorer communities.

Spend your days immersed in a colourful South African town - teaching English to the locals, organising activities for pre-school kids, uplifting underprivileged children and assisting with other community projects in and around the beautiful Garden Route area.

Volunteers are part of multiple dynamic projects privately run by EDGE of AFRICA, including:

Kadiki Kids Project

Teaching and Helping Literacy & Numeracy in Pre-Schools
