Here are some of the amazing opportunities we have lined up for you:

- Participating in fun activities: Share moments of laughter and enjoy the moments you spend in interactive activities with the children. Experience a unique outdoor dining in Harar’s traditional food culture.
- Helping to prepare school meals: Roll up your sleeves and join us in the kitchen as you prepare school meals, nourishing children with every meal you serve.
