The Happy Africa Foundation | Always moving forward. Always giving back.

Short term volunteering in Africa

The Happy Africa Foundation and African Impact’s INTERACT programme offers you the opportunity to gain a unique insight into local African communities, and to make a positive, lasting impact on people’s lives through our volunteer programmes. By helping build a classroom, paint an orphanage, refurbish a community center, or simply play games with local children, you can make a real difference in just one afternoon! 

Whether you are on holiday with family and friends, a corporate incentive travel itinerary or backpacking experience we invite you to be more than a tourist… Join in a full or half day volunteering adventure in a number of Southern and East African destinations.
