"One of the highlights of my service has been supporting a group of women in our community who make mats and baskets. We've provided them with training and helped them access markets, which has really boosted confidence. It's been so rewarding to see their progress! I'm really proud of the impact we're making through community-led development and asset-based development. Another achievement has been expanding our youth mandazi and chapatti bakery. We've invested in new equipment and trained more young bakers, creating employment opportunities and bringing delicious baked goods to our community. It's been a win-win situation for everyone involved! By empowering individuals and groups, we're creating positive change and opportunities for everyone."

"My experience as a CorpsAfrica Volunteer has been incredibly rewarding for my professional and personal development. Professionally, I have had the opportunity to work on impactful activities that directly benefit the community, honing my skills in project management, teamwork, and leadership, mobilization, accountability. On a personal level, I have gained a deeper understanding and appreciation for different cultures, perspectives, and ways of life. I have formed strong bonds with community members and fellow volunteers, creating a network of support and friendship that I know will last a lifetime. Overall, my time as a CorpsAfrica Volunteer has been transformative, shaping me into a more confident, compassionate, and capable individual."

"I would say that my journey has been a fulfilling one. I still have a lot to learn but I am grateful for what I have learnt and unlearnt so far. The service has taught me to simply be open minded, be willing to learn, be flexible, empathetic, kind, and many more other things. I've noticed that the community will treat me exactly how I treat them."
