VOLUNTARY WORK AND PROGRAMS

Peru, a multicultural country with a unique diversity of fauna and flora, several languages, mining reserves with great potential and exceptional cuisine, has much to offer its visitors. Although Peru has experienced economic growth and stability in recent years, millions of Peruvians still live either in poverty or extreme poverty. Around fifty percent of the country’s population is living under the poverty line and of that number 20% find themselves living in extreme poverty. This is an opportunity for you to make a difference and to be part of the solution. Our programs enable you to work to serve the community as you get to know the people, places, sounds and flavors of Peru. For those who would like to work as a volunteer in South America, we offer programs developed to suit your availability or ability to lend a helping hand and/or work with the community.
We develop each of our programs by taking into account your preferences and abilities. Whether you are traveling alone, with your family, on vacation or on a medical mission, we can organize a rewarding experience for you as a volunteer.
We offer the following volunteer opportunities:

• Taking care of children / Orphanage and health clinic projects

Be a volunteer working with children at an orphanage, health clinic and with street children. As a volunteer you will assist in the daily care of the children, and your tasks will include: helping to feed the children, teaching them in language classes, playing, reading with them, singing, art classes and sharing your love and attention with these very young people who are waiting to meet you.
