Experience swinging in dance rhythms, freedom from the tonal African instruments, learn to drum, children theater, food, buy crafts an connect! By joining our movement, travelling to Africa, volunteering or attending our festivals, you help children get off the streets and you help keep our arts centers alive. We are a social enterprise & charity based in the Netherlands that works on solving problems such as homeless children, child poverty, child abandonment and a lot more in Kenya & Uganda.

Join us on our movement as we help homeless children get off the streets, give them a home, provide their basic needs, educate them, and help them nurture their talents. We also support the youth in the communities through our arts centers by providing a platform to nurture artists, musicians, dancers and all creatives within the communities across Kenya & Uganda.

We are a platform designed to help change the perspective on Africa, by enhancing and promoting intercultural exchange between Africa & the rest of the world. We bring people into countries like Kenya & Uganda to experience and witness the beauty of Africa that isn’t shown on mainstream media!

We welcome everyone to travel with us and make social impact while doing so. – Daniel Okiror (founder)

We focus on changing the perspective of Africa by giving travelers a raw and cultural experience of the true Africa through our travel programs, artist residencies, backpackers, as well as our volunteering, internship and gap year programs.

Our main sources of funding for the children’s home & arts center come from the incomes earned when people travel to Africa through our travel programs, backpackers & volunteering programs.

Buurten over Grenzen

In de Binnenplaats van ZIMIHC theater Stefanus een bijzonder programma zien: Buurten over Grenzen. Vier verschillende Overvechtse groepen organiseren maandelijks een eigen programma binnen het thema Buurten over Grenzen.

Het idee achter Buurten over Grenzen is het behouden van de muziek- en (eet)cultuur uit verschillende landen. Ook de overdracht van de verschillende culturen naar een nieuwe generatie en buren is belangrijk. De organisaties willen hun muziek en cultuur delen en iedereen uitnodigen mee te doen. In een huiskamersetting komt dit volgens ons het best tot zijn recht. Kom buurten over grenzen!
