Travel to Africa!
Travel With Africa Classroom Connection:
Dates: TBD
We invite you to join a group Learning Tour to South Africa as we visit school building sites for Africa Classroom Connection. We look forward to sharing with you the places and people we cherish.
This will not be a conventional package tour of Africa. While we will see wild animals on safari (a treasure of Africa!) most of the tour will be philanthropic and cultural. Seeing the need first-hand has a significant impact on those who join us. You will meet wonderful people and learn about the promise and challenges of education. Imagine 400 Zulu school children putting on a dance and music performance for their American visitors! You will be surprised. You will have fun. You will see the world in a new way.
The draft travel itinerary (to be confirmed) includes:
- Three days in Cape Town for history, scenic beauty, wineries, and Robben Island visit
- Four days in the region of KwaZulu, South Africa, to visit schools, meet the learners, and learn about the area we serve
- Four days of safari, viewing wildlife in its natural habitat
A tax-deductible contribution to ACC of $1,250 per person will be included. This contribution helps build new classrooms for students to continue their education. Travelers often fundraise their contributions. ACC can assist in providing fundraising direction.

“I fell in love! All the symptoms were there: feelings of exhilaration, euphoria, surprise, increased energy, and wanting to tell everyone about my beloved!”
“I was surprised to see how excited the students were to have us visit their schools. They made us feel like we were rock stars! They were very appreciative of being able to study in a safe environment.”
“This trip made me more aware of the discrepancies that exist in basic needs around the world and how much impact having access to education can change lives.”
“This is not a typical trip to Africa. Although you do visit some tourist sites and can add on a safari, the heart of the tour is getting to know those who are being impacted by the classrooms.”
