Freedom, Rights, Dreams - All in a day’s work in RSA
"Freezing! Pure mountain water from Helderberg. The Volunteering Hands crowd joined in 5 minutes later - JUMPING BRAVELY into the water. Absolute WATER!"
Enjoying warm hospitality in Somerset West
"I soon realized that that I need them as much as they need me. Something changed in me: I realized the true meaning in 'celebrating the act of kindness"
"From Heidelberg we went to Cape Town, where we explored Camps Bay, Table Mountain and travelled on the open top City Sightseeing bus to Kirstenbosch. My friends and I have come to respect the Rainbow Nation for its colourful diversity!"
Three countries united at our meeting spot: Emirates, Germany and the UK!
