Kommetjie - Cape Town

There are so many people talking about all the benefits they’ve experienced through volunteering, while others are in awe of the beauty they’ve experienced when travelling to Cape Town. Do you find yourself being torn between these two options? Does one part of you want to volunteer and another part want to travel and see the beauty of Cape Town for yourself? The solution is simple: Volunteer abroad.

There are amazing international volunteering programs available and, if you have access to the internet, they’re right at your fingertips. The Volunteering Africa Website will provide you with descriptions, information and pictures related to the programs they offer.

The volunteer coordinators will be available 24/7 to assist you during your stay. Based in Kommetjie on the Southern Peninsula of the Western Cape, you’ll be living in one of the most beautiful places South Africa has to offer while participating in the Cape Town Program. You’ll be surrounded by views of beaches and mountains and you’ll be able to experience Cape Town as a tourist in your free time. Find out more about things you can do while volunteering on the Volunteering Africa — Facebook page or view them on Volunteering Africa — Pinterest.

When you volunteer abroad, you’ll probably form part of a group of volunteers. There will be people from different places and walks of life volunteering with you. This often leads to good friendships with fellow volunteers. If you’re a bit hesitant to make the trip on your own, why not ask a friend to join you? International volunteering trips have been known to strengthen the bonds of friendships.

You’ll learn new languages, taste new types of food and find a whole new appreciation of things you may have taken for granted back home.

It goes without saying that no matter what niche of volunteering you take part in, you’ll feel a sense of pride. Few things in life compare with the knowledge that you’ve helped those in need.

You’ll gain life experience and learn a thing or two about yourself that you didn’t know. You may have strengths that you weren’t aware of before. While it will be hard work, volunteering in Cape Town will prove to be a fulfilling experience — especially if you’re someone who enjoys new experiences and meeting new people.
