Why Pay to Volunteer?
Tanzania ecoVolunteerism is a non-governmental, non-profit organisation and that your volunteer fee is not a contribution to your project.
Why then should you pay for Volunteering With Us? And where does the money go, if not to the project?
Having chosen to give our communities your time and energy for a sustainable project in Tanzania, you might ask ‘Why do I need to pay? and then wonder ‘where does the fee actually go?’
When you Volunteer with Us, you are giving your time to the NGO, the charity and the communities that will host you. TeV is not creating the relationship between you and the project, but is providing you with extensive support in Volunteering With Us.
The benefits to you
