Other Ways To Help: Pack For Purpose
Transform ordinary travel into extraordinary giving. Use spare luggage space to bring educational supplies that directly support Injongo Educare Centre - stationery, educational games, or books that enhance learning opportunities for local children.
Check our Pack for a Purpose list before travelling, pack the supplies, and leave them with guest relations to deliver during your community experience. Your luggage becomes lasting impact.
