Life is not just about fulfilling one’s own selfish interests and motives. It is about rendering some amount of service to make the world a better place to live. Every human being should be allowed to enjoy certain rights,for example, right to life, right to education, right to freedom of speech, thought and expression. However, many people located in the different corners of the world do not get to exercise such rights. They are deprived of the basic necessities of life. Africa, especially Kenya is one such region of the world where rural citizens lack the basic things in life. Illiteracy and poverty hinders growth and development and the place needs volunteer work Africa. It is the social responsibility of every individual to contribute and work hard to bring such communities to light. This can be done by providing education, knowledge of basic facts like – conservation of energy and protection of the environment, empowering women, improving health facilities and bringing about microenterprise development initiatives.

Volunteers Development for Africa (VoDA) is one such organisation that works to bring about development amongst the rural people of Kenya. They believe in empowering the poverty-stricken people by engaging them in microenterprise development activities. VoDA aims at training people through camps, internship programs, volunteer in Kenya programs, community development and growth projects, and educational excursions.

VoDA provides an opportunity to everyone to take a step forward by organising events where people around the world can come up together, join hands and work to empower people so that their lives change from a state of misery to that of bliss and freedom.

Every human being should come forward and join the team to volunteer for such noble volunteer programs in Kenya. This will help those in need to come out of the dark and get enlightened with the values of peace and social justice.
