MDID 肯亞志工行 Kenya volunteer

MDID Kenya volunteer

This summer, a group of students from the International Department of Mingdao High School embarked on a groundbreaking journey as the school’s very first YMCA overseas volunteer team. Their destination? Kenya, Africa—a place both challenging and full of promise.

During their trip, the team volunteered at Kibera School, located in Nairobi’s Kibera community, which is the largest urban slum in Africa. There, they spent several days teaching, connecting with local students, and supporting the school in meaningful ways. The experience was eye-opening and deeply rewarding, giving the students a new perspective on service, resilience, and global citizenship.

To cap off their adventure, the team explored the breathtaking Maasai Mara National Park, witnessing Africa’s iconic wildlife and natural beauty firsthand. The journey was long and demanding, but the memories, friendships, and lessons gained will last a lifetime.

This event wasn’t just about travel—it was about making a difference, growing together, and bringing hope across continents.

MDID 肯亞志工行

今年夏天，明道中學國際部的一群學生展開了一場開創性的旅程，成為學校首支YMCA海外志工隊伍，目的地是非洲的肯亞——一個充滿挑戰、也充滿希望的地方。

在這次行程中，學生們前往位於奈洛比Kibera貧民區的Kibera學校擔任志工。Kibera是非洲最大的都市貧民窟。團隊在那裡停留數日，協助教學、與當地學生互動交流，並實際參與校務支援工作。這段經歷讓學生們大開眼界，也帶來深刻感動，讓他們重新思考「服務」、「韌性」與「全球公民」的意義。

行程的最後，團隊前往壯麗的馬賽馬拉國家公園，親眼目睹非洲壯觀的野生動物與自然景色。儘管旅程遙遠且充滿挑戰，但所獲得的回憶、友誼與生命體悟將會伴隨一生。

這不只是一趟旅行，而是一場跨越國界、傳遞希望、共同成長的志業之旅。
