The Discover Kenya Trip gives participants the opportunity to travel and work in East
Africa’s most tourist focused country.
This 30 day discovery tour comprises of a combination of voluntary work within the local
communities. You will visit both the rural and coastal regions of Kenya to compare their
unique lifestyles and get a chance to meet the Big 5 on safari in one of Kenya’s famous
game reserves. This package offers participants the chance to immerse themselves into
Kenyan culture, to experience life in Africa whilst helping communities by volunteering
your assistance in various projects. Once participants have completed their much
appreciated hard work helping the communities they are given the opportunity to climb
Mt Longonot in Kenya’s central province or maybe even get face to face with a pack of
lions on one of the safari game drives. No doubt you will meet lots of likeminded people
out there participating in the same program. The Kenya discovery trip aims to benefit all
concerned as we put a great deal of effort establishing the links between the locals and
the volunteers to get the best possible outcome.
Itinerary ‘Discover Kenya’ Proposed Itinerary;

2. Day 1 – Arrival at the Jomo Kenyatta International Airport where you will be met by the
Sub Saharan coordinators where you will be transferred to a hotel or a host family.
Day 2 - will start with a brief by the local staff about the trip including talks on the
adventure aspect, health & safety, and the culture and way of life in Kenya. You will be
taken on a city tour and a visit to the project, giving you a chance to meet and greet all
the staff members before the work starts the following day.
Day 3 – 8 – For the next 6 days you will be given the opportunity to do some voluntary
work in a local children’s orphanage or be able to teach at a school. These depend on
your preferences. In the orphanages you will be able to look after and care for many
children who have lost their parents through HIV/AIDS. Part of this process is lots of
interaction with the children including games, activities and teaching the children. Most
orphanages also have feeding programs which volunteers will be involved with.
Volunteers are also able to teach at specific projects a range of subjects including
English, Maths, Science, and Geography. Volunteers are also encouraged to be
proactive and create extracurricular activities for the children to participate in.

3. Day 9 – On day 9 you will be able to visit the David Sheldrick foundation for orphaned
baby elephants. Also nearby you will visit the giraffe centre, the Karen Blixen safari walk
and finally have your evening meal dinner at the world famous Carnivore Restaurant.
Day 10 – 14 - You will return to your volunteer project and continue working there for
another 4 days.
Day 15 – Day 15 will see you embark on an adventure to either Mt Longonot or to Hells
Gate National Park. We have given volunteers the option here. Mt Longonot is a
dormant volcano located in Kenya’s Great Rift Valley. The trip is 7-8km long and takes
around 5 hours. Hells Gate National Park is unique as it is one of only two parks in
Kenya where hiking & cycling is permitted. The park offers many animal varieties
including zebra, buffalo, eland, thomson’s gazelle and many more.
Day 16 – 19 - For the next three days volunteers will be taken on safari. The choices for
this include the Maasai Mara, Lake Nakuru & Amboseli National Parks. We will
organise this trip on majority numbers. Each of the three parks contains Africa’s Big
Five including lion, elephant, buffalo, leopard & rhino. You will be accommodated in
tented camps inside the national park and all your meals will be included
Day 20 – Day 20 sees you taking the 8 hour trip through the scenic Tsavo National Park
to Kenya’s second largest city and only port Mombasa.
Day 21 – 24 Your time in Mombasa will be spent at a volunteering project. You will work
in the project for 4 days. This again is a project of your choosing: perhaps something
similar to the work you were doing in Nairobi or maybe something completely different.

4. This project must be chosen before arrival in Mombasa. You can discuss the options with
our staff on the ground and they will assist you getting to work at the project.
Day 25 – 28 This is your time to take in Mombasa’s famous culture. You will either be
situated with a host family or in a hotel. Volunteers will be able to enjoy the beach life
and participate in the Mombasa excursions including the Marine Park, Haller Park, and
historical sites of Mombasa including Fort Jesus and further up the coast, the Gedi ruins.
This time is mostly spent at your leisure.
Day 29 – On day 29 you will make the trip back through Tsavo National Park to Nairobi.
‘Watch out for those giraffes on the road’. You will have a farewell dinner consisting of
‘Nyama Choma’ which is Kenya’s national dish.

• Safe drinking water – When children are thirsty, it doesn’t matter if a river is
clouded and polluted, they’ll drink from it. Lecden-kenya simple solutions like clean
water tablets make it easy for children to access clean water anywhere, anytime.
• Education – In the aftermath of war or natural disaster, children often feel
safest in a classroom. Lecden-Kenya developed the School-in-a-Box kit so that a
classroom could be set up anywhere to restore a sense of normalcy and help break the
cycle of poverty.
• Immunizations – Lecden-Kenya provides vaccinations for more than half the
world’s children. Chills, fevers, vomiting, convulsions and death – this is what a
simple, inexpensive vaccine can spare a child from suffering.
Children don’t get to choose where they live. Millions end up in dire situations. These
are children just like the children you know – small, vulnerable, and full of hopes and
dreams.
We owe the world’s children our help.

Give water, give life ,But, there are still so many others who live without clean water.
Every day, 4,000 children under the age of five die due to diseases that could be
prevented by safe water, sanitation and improved hygiene.

8. Please make a tax-deductible gift today to bring clean water and sanitation to more of
the world’s poorest communities.
Lecden-kenya transforms lives by improving access to safe water, hygiene and
sanitation in the world’s poorest communities. We work with partners and influence
decision makers to maximize our impact.
Your 100% tax-deductible gift will support the best child survival and protection team
on the planet:
* Education – In the aftermath of war or natural disaster, children often feel safest in
a classroom.Lecden-kenya developed the School-in-a-Box kit so that a classroom could
be set up anywhere to restore a sense of normalcy and help break the cycle of poverty.
* Emergency relief – Children are often separated from their families in the chaos
after a disaster. Lecden-kenya sets up child protection centers to provide these kids
with a safe environment, clean water, shelter and help in finding their lost loved ones.
* Safe drinking water – When children are thirsty, it doesn’t matter if a river is
clouded and polluted, they’ll drink from it. Lecden-kenya’s simple solutions like clean
water tablets make it safe for children to drink when they are thirsty – anywhere,
anytime.
Every day of every year, Lecden-kenya uses these proven, low-cost methods to save
kids living on the brink. And it’s working. The annual number of under-five deaths
dropped from 13 million in 1990 to 8 million in 2010.
Still, 22,000 children die each day from preventable causes. We believe that number
should be zero.
There is no reason why a child should die from a cause that has long been solved in
the developed world.

help us reach our goal of raising $2 million by December 31.
No other organization has saved more children’s lives than Lecden-Kenya.

It’s so important for us to make the most of this opportunity to double your gift! That’s
because the slow economic recovery, the recent catastrophic floods in Pakistan and the
devastating earthquake in Haiti earlier this year have stretched our resources to the
breaking point.
Just think how many lives you can help save by making your dollars go twice as far to
provide desperately needed medicines to sick and suffering people in the world’s
poorest countries. Your gift will be doubled to provide healthcare and help prevent
people-especially little children-from dying of treatable diseases.
I promise you, your gift will make a real difference to so many people who would
otherwise have no access to even the most basic medical care. Please give now. God
bless you!
Please join us Together we can make a difference to Orphans and other vulnerable
