SAFETY
Our No. 1 priority is to ensure that our participants are in a safe environment while on their programs. With this firmly in mind. We only receive volunteers into Tanzania and to other countries because politically we are stable and safe in all facts and we have much peace in each destination where our programs are located. If a situation changes our local staff overseas constantly monitors the situation. If we think that safety may be compromised, we immediately take steps to remove our participants from the unsafe environment.
