Mention code 6604580 | | Intrepid Travel | | | | Day | Destination | Description | | Days 1-2 | Kilimanjaro Airport/Amani Children's Home | Have a holiday with a difference, and make a difference. Meet the inspiring kids of the Amani Children's Home in Moshi, a busy town overshadowed by the cloud-shrouded summit of Mt Kilimanjaro. Poverty, Aids and family break ups have touched these children but the Home offers the chance of a brand new start. Amani aims to offer shelter, support and vital life lessons to these African kids. With educational programs, such as 'Street Education' which teaches street children about health and hygiene and the 'Upendo' (love) program, Amani is a place for kids to grow into happy, safe and healthy adults. Be introduced to Amani on a guided tour and enjoy a chance to meet the staff and children. Then it's down to work - time here will be spent doing anything from helping with simple repairs or painting to playing football or helping out with schoolwork. Of course, there's plenty of time to interact with the friendly, smiling children. | | Day 3 | Local Excursion | Take the day off and relax on a tour of the surrounding countryside, covered in thick banana groves and coffee plantations. A visit to the workshop of a local batik artist gives a look at how these intricately-patterned fabrics are made and a trek to a waterfall in the fertile foothills of Mt Kilimanjaro might allow a refreshing afternoon dip. | | Days 4-6 | Kilimanjaro Airport/Amani Children's Home | There are a host of things to help out with back at Amani: teaching an English class, preparing dinner, planting seedlings in the vegetable garden or simply overseeing play time. Before you know it, it's time to say sad goodbyes to these remarkable kids. |
