Volunteer in Musoma, Tanzania

"Musoma is a beautiful place, situated right by Lake Victoria. You will be part of a big team living and working together in the local communities."

OVERVIEW

Musoma is our base in Northern Tanzania. It is situated in the region of Mara which stretches from Lake Victoria to the Serengeti. We have a lovely purpose built lodge here where our volunteers sleep, eat and socialise.  There are a wide variety of projects to get involved in from building water tanks, goat sheds and low cost houses, teaching in local schools or health education in villages or helping local business initiatives.
