    Sobre el programa

    For this volunteer program we are looking for eager volunteers that would like to support us in the realisation of our community projects. You will be actively involved in reaching out to the community. 


    Your work will involve assisting us with all our projects, these are many and varied and you will be working with and alongside locals.


    1) Income generating projects, we run several projects at our centre including chickens, goats, pigs, fish, rabbits, bee keeping and vegetable gardening.  You will be shown how the projects work and how to look after the animals. You will help look after the animals and help set up similar projects with families in the community.


    2) Building refurbishment and repair, we have several buildings at our site including lodges, shops and outbuildings.  We need to do work on many of them to get them ready for use by the trust.  We could also be going into families homes and schools to help with maintenance and building projects. 


    3) At certain times of the year we are planning to hold holiday clubs for our sponsored orphaned children, you will be involved in running the club and interacting with the children and their families/guardians.


    4) We will also be working with local schools and there could be the opportunity to work with the children assisting in classrooms and with games.


    For the younger members there are many areas that you can help us with, playing with orphans, making bricks, looking after the animals etc

    There will be other projects that we are working on and you could end up turning your hand to anything!

    Come and experience rural Zimbabwe while working with vulnerable local communities, widows, schools, orphans and vulnerable children.

    We are a young Trust working in rural Sanyati and need your help setting up and helping run some of our community projects. We also get involved in building and refurbishing projects.  You do not need any particular skills, just a willingness to get your hands dirty, get involved & be flexible.  Things will and do change!

    You will be able to visit some of the people we are working with in their homes and see how the projects are making a real difference in their lives.   Also visit and maybe do some work in local schools, find out from the teachers and students what rural schooling is like in Zimbabwe.

    WARNING: We are in a very rural setting, with very basic accommodation and utilities.  We have solar power, running cold water (cold shower is available & can heat up water for you to wash with if you wish).  We eat from the land (no MacBurger King here!!).  Internet is limited, as is phone reception, so if you want all mod cons this is not for you, but if you want a real rural experience then look no further!

    In June 2023, I spent two eye-opening weeks in Sanyati with the Ratidzo Foundation. The organisers, Edline and Richard, gave us a very warm welcome and immediately made us part of their daily work. The work of the Ratidzo foudation trust is to improve the lives of the people of Sanyati. To do this, ...

    My trip to Sanyati, Zimbabwe In September 2018, I spent a fortnight in Zimbabwe, volunteering with my daughter and parents. We stayed in Sanyati and saw, first hand, the work of Ratidzo Trust. Visiting the schools was a highlight for me; giving text books to the schools; presenting letters from ...

    I went to visit Ratidzo Trust in September 2018 and got to see some of the amazing work the charity does in Sanyati. It is in a rural part of Zimbabwe, far from larger cities, and as such I was able to see what life is really like for people living in a place vastly different to the UK. I visited ...

    This was without a doubt the best weeks of our life. My husband and I spent 2 weeks with Ratidzo Trust with Edline and Richard and we both agree that we took more than what we gave. We learned so much about gardening, construction, social work and taking care of animals. We also learned how to be ...

    This trip was a sublime experience, and I will remember it all my life. We were very well received by very nice people, Edline and Richard. Thanks to them, they were able to do a lot of different activities to make themselves useful. Help lots of people in need, help schools, do agriculture. An ...
