We Invite You to Join Us
Since our official start in 2000, HEART has had eleven years of explosive growth.
HEART has hosted over 600 volunteer team members for two week journeys to Kenya. These teams have consisted of men, women and youth interested in exercising their global citizenship by sharing their time and talents. Some teams are from the community organizations, some are church groups while others are medical teams and construction teams. What all of these teams share is a desire to bring hope to an area badly affected by the AIDS pandemic and other diseases.
Is this trip for me? (FAQ)
If you still have questions, please contact us.
Perhaps some day we will say, “Jambo”, Swahili for Hello, to each other in Kenya.
Internship Opportunities - HEART Internship Program
Each intern accomplishes a project based on HEART’s current needs and the skills and interests of the intern. In the past, interns have worked with the WEEP (Women’s Equality Empowerment Project) women on developing long-term business plans, made a presentation to be used for HEART fundraising for the Freedom for Girls Project, designed and authored newsletters for HEART’s three main projects (Women’s Equality Empowerment Project, Kids for School, and Freedom for Girls), and organized a large youth event. Interns have interests ranging from intercultural studies to business and marketing. Whether your passion is medicine or photography, there is a place in the HEART internship program for you.
In addition to an individual project, interns have the privilege of taking part in many of HEART’s projects. Sometimes this includes travel to various upcountry locations in Kenya, various slums, safari, and maybe even Mombasa. Interns often help with health education seminars in schools both upcountry and in slums, as well as help with basic office organization around the HEART Lodge in Nairobi.
