Not everyone has the opportunity to take a 'gap year.' In fact, free time is becoming increasingly precious and holidays allowances shorter.

Agapao International offers people who would like to share their skills, but can only 'escape' for a couple of weeks, the chance to have a holiday and have an impact.

If you would like to join us an make an impact, please contact us to discuss your needs.

Get Involved

Agapao International can support people with training and ideas to improve conditions for thousands of people in their own community. By providing a 'CIK' start, a whole community can be mobilised and empowered to be self-sufficient in a sustainable way.

Agapao provides start-up support for community initiatives to improve and share skills, combat lethargy and ill health and encourage self-sufficiency through income generating projects. Each community impact kit consists of:

  • £75 = 3 PREGNANT GOATS: the opportunity to learn animal care and generate an income
  • £100 = LATRINE: for sanitation and health
  • £100 = STANDPIPE: clean water, reducing illness (water is sold and the profit used to pay for school fees for the local children)
  • £5 = SPORTS EQUIPMENT: encouraging health, fun and social skills
  • £60 = SEWING MACHINE: used by womens groups t&make clothes and crafts to sell and make school uniform to enable children to go to school
  • £15 = AGRICULTURAL TOOLS: to enable people to grow vegetables and build houses
  • £15 = BAKING EQUIPMENT: enables sharing of skills and income generation
  • £15 = CHARCOAL BURNER: for making chapati, rolex and simple meals which could develop into a cafe
  • £10 = CRAFT MATERIALS: encourages local skills to be shared and items can be sold
