Create Your Own Trip

willshek Get involved, Volunteer trips

We can help anyone looking for volunteer experiences to create the ultimate trip which makes a big difference to our GEF children in Kenya.

Outwith our two group trips each year there are two ‘Create Your Own Trip’ options:

  1. Assisting our kids during school holidays (April, August, December) with letter writing to their sponsors and school pen pals.
  2. House building if volunteers are in a position to raise the full funds for building a new house for one of our families.  Houses can cost anything between £3,000 and £6,000 depending on the size and location.

Please email info@gathimbaedwardsfoundation.org to find out more or watch the video below as Andrew & Lucy Philp discuss their own volunteering trip with GEF.
