‘Volunteering for Tumaini La Maisha has been a deeply rewarding and humbling experience. I’ve had the privilege of being part of the support of children and their families through some of the most challenging times of their lives, offering not only my time, compassion and most of all encouragement.
Working closely with the charity I have witnessed first hand the incredible if not unnatural strength of these young fighters and this has left an everlasting impact on what emotional and financial support can have on the journey of childhood cancer treatment. This experience has greatly enriched my understanding on the importance of community support and empathy healthcare.’

‘Working at TLM has been a highlight of my summer. I’ve thoroughly enjoyed working with the kids, parents, teachers, and staff members, seeing first hand the joy and impact that volunteer initiatives bring to their lives. I supported education projects, nutrition programs, recreational activities with the kids, and fundraising efforts. As a future public health professional, supporting the implementation of these efforts has also deepened my understanding of healthcare NGO work and will be instrumental in my future career. It’s been a true blessing working with TLM. I’ll miss the community dearly.’
