- volunteer, Beveren, Belgium

I had already traveled to Tanzania before becoming involved with JSFoundation, but meeting Karen there gave my connection with the country a new direction. Since then, I have returned several times to work with schools and women’s groups, teaching, sharing ideas and learning from them too.
In Belgium, I help at fairs and events, support the school exchanges, and develop educational games for the school kits in Tanzania. It brings me great joy to use my time and creativity for work that feels useful and meaningful.
And through it all, the friendships I have built in Tanzania have become one of the most rewarding parts of this journey.

“Being part of JSFoundation allows me to turn my love for Tanzania into meaningful work—from developing school games and supporting exchanges to teaching in schools and women’s groups—while building friendships that mean the world to me.”
