Supporting a Local Community School
One of the highlights of this coliving experience is the chance to give back to the local community. Our hosts have an established a partnership with a community school and NGO (registered charity) in Chintsa, Eastern Cape offering digital nomads the opportunity to volunteer and share their expertise with eager students. By dedicating some of your time to teaching or helping with school activities, you can make a meaningful difference in the lives of young learners.
Helping the school not only benefits the students but also enriches your own experience. Engaging with the community provides a deeper understanding of local culture and fosters connections that go beyond typical tourist interactions.
