"to offer to do something that you do not have to do" 🧡

We might be biased but the GEF team think we have the BEST volunteers in the world. GEF volunteers travel from all around the world to join us in Kenya and see first hand what donor's hard earned money helps us achieve.

We can't wait to welcome guests back to Kenya in 2022!

What's your favourite thing about volunteering with GEF?

We can’t wait to welcome visitors to Kenya again on our trips in 2022.

Singore Forrest in Iten has to be one of the most peaceful and beautiful places to walk/run.
