SPAN is a partnership between college students in the United States and community leaders in East Africa. Disillusioned by exorbitant prices and the impersonal nature of most volunteer programs, SPAN works to connect reputable community organizations with potential volunteers. Volunteers are welcome to directly contact the organizations advertised on SPAN or take advantage of the inexpensive placement services our organization offers. SPAN is working every day to obtain grants and frequent flyer mile donations in the hope that one day volunteering can be possible for everyone.
