Adam - 2011
“It has been a privilege and a pleasure to live and work in Milingano for the past four weeks, coaching sport and helping to build toilets for Milingano’s Health Centre. From the musical welcome at Yamba (followed by the astounding sight of some very small people carrying our very heavy bags up a very steep hill) to our final netball, football and building sessions in Mili, the people have been warm, welcoming and thoroughly entertaining.
The excitement and enthusiasm of Milingano’s children, whether for organised sport, an informal chance to practise their English or simply to wave hello from any distance is unfaltering and will always bring a smile to your face.
We have been proud to contribute to the work being done here by Village Africa, the benefits of which are significant and tangible, and are clearly appreciated and understood by all members of the community.”
Doug - administration and football coach - 2011
"If you are considering volunteer work in Africa, look no further. Worried about how your personal skills may be of use? Don’t be.
Everything with Village Africa is taken care of. All done in a quiet, efficient and discreet way which just leaves you to enjoy the whole experience. You will be invited into the homes and lives of these lovely people. Just enjoy it.
I believe that your time in Yamba or Milingano will help change lives, including your own. I have just completed my third visit and feel part of the Yamba family which I take as a great honour. I hope I can ‘live up’ to just some of the values of these amazingly welcoming, friendly people.”
