Pay directly to the projects and host families in Uganda
Help to raise fund for poor orphanages, school, and other NGOs
Uganda was once described by a famous personality as “The Pearl of Africa”. Since then, the government has rebranded the country and now proudly calls itself “Gifted by Nature”. This is a true reflection of the land filled with fascinating wildlife, national parks, rivers, lakes and spectacular sceneries. There is a lot to do and soak in Uganda. But despite the beauty and the increased tourist flow, Uganda is still a poor country and lives of ordinary people are hard.
New Hope Volunteer works with many local organizations that are trying to empower the poor and bring development. Our volunteers will work along with local people and contribute in a small but meaningful way. In return, you’ll encounter immense gratitude and warm hospitality.

In recent years, volunteering has become more of a business than charity. Many organizations in the US, UK, Australia, and New Zealand run volunteering programs solely for profit.

We hope to make the dreams of college students and budget travelers come true.

This ensures that 100% of your money goes to the project.

New Hope Volunteers will arrange for the accommodation and meal of the volunteer throughout the program. Volunteers will stay either in a hostel or with a host family. In the hostel, you’ll share room with other volunteers and swap stories and experiences. Our host families have been carefully screened and chosen and they will have experience of hosting international volunteers before. The host families will provide you with a warm, comfortable and secure place to stay. You’ll have a room for yourself and at least one member of the host family will be able to communicate with you in English. Living with a host family will also provide you with a wonderful opportunity to learn about local culture and customs and make local friends. Volunteers will be served 3 local meals a day in both the hostel or with a host family. During the volunteer program, our country coordinator will be in touch with you every 10-15 days to make sure you’re comfortable and happy. Volunteers will also have access to coordinator’s mobile phone and can call up anytime if any problem arises.
