For a better experience of an African village but with comfort, all our Volunteers are accommodated in our local community home where they live with other family members and volunteers become part of the family. We have semi permanent simple community houses where the volunteers will live with other family members. 

Because its a local community with limited access to electricity, the houses have solar for only lighting and charging phones/tabloids/cameras. Some houses have a cemented floor and the walls are made of bricks and other houses are made of grass thatched roof but professionally designed to provide comfort to the guests. The choice is yours. There is a shared pit latrine and shared bathrooms constructed outside the houses. Volunteers are free to come with camping tents to be used in case of community camps/trips when necessary. There is a wide, green compound (Except dry seasons) with a number of fruits like oranges, mangoes, pawpaws, jack fruit, avocados among others. 

Volunteers are encouraged to carry their bed-sheets, Bed covers/blanket, pillow, bathing Towel and other personal items. Volunteers are requested to share a rooms with another volunteer or if they come in groups or family etc.

The school is located about, 10 minutes by motorbike from the accommodation (residence) place.

Volunteers are encouraged to come with any key scholastic materials of their choice to use while teaching including Learning games boards, among others.
