During the workcamp, volunteers will get food from locally available foodstuffs and will share the responsibility of preparing the food.
In this workcamp, volunteers will have a chance to do evening nature walks, home visits, cultural meetings, and games. During weekends, volunteers can visit Lake Victoria, Kisumu Museum, the Crying Stone, the equator line, and a general tour in Kisumu city. Volunteers will also have the opportunity for an early morning visit to Kakamega Rainforest, hike on the forest hill and witness a sunrise from the forest hill.

‘Happy Me Happy You’ is a non-profit organization that was established in 2017 to empower children women, youth and men from vulnerable and poverty-stricken backgrounds to realize a sustainable community focussing on key areas of Education, Water, Health and Sanitation and Agriculture to improve their livelihood.
The organization is strongly focused on offering Early Childhood Development and Education to vulnerable children. It also runs a feeding program for needy children affected by hunger.
The project is working towards beginning to be involved in the following activities:
Training small-scale farmers on modern/best farming practices to maximize their productivity, realize potential market and increase sales
Training the community stakeholders on new technology trends through ICT to help them research, get informed and
Training the community on financial management and leadership skills to enable them plan and budget well for their finances.
They engage the community in table banking - a system that enables members of a community to access unsecured loans, from money pooled by other members of the community, and allows community members to invest in each other’s businesses and enterprises where members can apply for short- or long-term loans at low-interest rates.
