Gap Year Opportunities, Kenya - IcFEM
Posted: 30/04/08; Expires: 31/10/08IcFEM is an interdenominational Christian organisation, currently operating in Western Kenya. The aim of the Interchristian Fellowships' Evangelical Mission is to build up people in the rural areas both spiritually and practically, to be wholly for God and hard- working, especially in the area of self- help and sustainable projects, to run a mercy ministry to the needy and to involve in various community development projects while conserving the environment. As our Mission is to Accelerate Community Development, IcFEM has now developed a gap programme for international students and volunteers to share their valuable skills. The Gap Programme involves volunteers in meaningful and enjoyable tasks in Western Province, Kenya and is run and managed in a relatively large town of Western Province called Kimilili.
