Dental professionals are invited to serve at our flagship clinic, the Maasai Dental Clinic in rural Kenya. Serving for 2 or 4 weeks, you will work Monday through Friday in our modern, fully equipped clinic, alongside our full-time Kenyan support staff. Our clinic can accommodate up to 3 dentists at a time.
We are not currently looking for non-dental volunteers. However, if family members or friends would like to stay with the volunteering dentist at the Maasai Dental Clinic campus, we could always use help with maintenance tasks like gardening or painting.
There is no participation fee to volunteer at the Maasai Dental Clinic. However, to hold your volunteer slot, we do require a $500 deposit that is refunded to you when you arrive at the clinic.
You are invited to bring guests with you (spouse, child, friend). The cost per additional person is $250 which is not refunded. This helps us cover additional food and lodging costs.
