ABOUT US

Volunteer4Free Kenya (V4FK) gives voluntourists an opportunity to make a difference in Kenya free of charge. The coordinators – some with Kenyan volunteer experience stretching over several years – find the high fees asked by many "volunteers for Africa" organizations repulsive. While there are legitimate reasons for charging participants something to volunteer, e.g. for food, board, and/or basic health insurance, the concept of (locals in particular) spending over $1,000 to volunteer for a week just doesn't seem right. And when in a country where some citizens live on less than $2 a day, the contradiction seems even more glaring. Hence the initiation of V4FK.

 

No one at V4FK is paid for their work. We are all volunteers working together as equal members of a team. We feel the world would be a better place if people worked for altruistic motivations. This concept forms the foundation for our program.
