Connect With Your Kids, Unite With The World

Do you dream of Africa? Are your daydreams filled with the tawny yellows and brilliant greens of a safari? Do you yearn to travel, to see the world, to make a difference? If you (or your teenager) dreams of Africa, then this trip is for you.

Connect With Your Kids, Unite With The World

Connecticut-based social entrepreneur Anne Wells, founder and director of the social organization Unite The World With Africa, is inviting select parent and child groups to join her this June on a unique service safari. Kids aged 13-18 will be able to travel alongside their parents and participate in hands-on work throughout central and northern Tanzania. They will also be able to experience wildlife safaris in some of the world's most magnificent national parks, including the eighth Wonder of the World, the Ngorongoro Crater.

But let's also address the service aspect. There is so much work to be done in Africa that it makes particular sense to participate in a voluntourism trip. On the June 2014 trip, participants will have the chance to help refurbish school buildings, build libraries, deliver goods like mosquito nets, clothes, food, and other medicinal supplies, and host marginalized students on safari into bush where they will see their country's wildlife for the very first time ever. Anne Wells assures us that each trip will involve plenty of cross-cultural exchange—you'll get to know your Tanzanian peers, learn from them, and in turn, they'll learn from you.

Unite The World With Africa works to advance health, education and micro finance programs across East Africa. Unite Tours is their safari arm designed to empower safari-goers to -- in addition to seeing the wildlife—experience real life in the villages and witness first-hand the transformative work being done by Unite and its multiple partner organizations.

So what are you waiting for? Stop dreaming and start doing. For more information please email anne@unitetnz.org or visit unitetnz.org.
