Volunteering in a children’s project in Chile is just right for everyone who loves children and has a social streak. Then a voluntary service in Chile is your chance to invest your time in children from socially disadvantaged backgrounds and to expand your own knowledge and skills.
This wildlife sanctuary is run by a non-profit organization based in Costa Rica, that focuses on rescuing and rehabilitating local wildlife. The rescue center is also dedicated to finding long-term solutions to the problems our planet earth is facing:
This volunteer project takes place in a wildlife sanctuary located right in the middle of the Bolivian Amazonia. Part of the land has suffered deforestation due to slash-and-burn agricultural techniques practiced by local farmers. This is particularly risky, since the region presents a high risk of bush fires.
If you are an animal lover and you always wanted to be around exotic animals, this project in the rainforest of Costa Rica is just the thing for you! Here you can immerse in a fascinating world and promote animal protection and plant biodiversity.
This program allows you to work for stay and food in Ecuador, while learning about the local culture, exploring the amazing country and improving your Spanish skills.
The program place is located close to the city of Ibarra, approximately 120 km (75 mi) north of the country’s capital, Quito.
This volunteer work in Costa Rica takes place in one of the country’s national parks. Although Costa Rica is a very small country, the vegetation and wildlife are extremely diverse. The national parks system was established to protect the country’s unique nature and biodiversity since the beginning of the environmental conservation movement.
This volunteer program in Peru takes place in the beautiful colonial city of Cusco, which is the starting point for excursions to the world-famous Machu Picchu. Volunteers are placed in different children’s homes for girls or boys or mixed. These institutions offer a refuge for children and teenagers who come from socially disadvantaged and poor families.
On the one hand, Cusco is a stronghold for tourists from all over the world, as the famous Inca city of Machu Picchu is not far away and Cusco itself has a World Heritage status as a colonial city and the former capital of the Inca empire. Unfortunately, it is also one of the Peruvian cities with the highest rate of violence against women.
Although the children suffer from a variety of disabilities, most are affected by autism or Down syndrome. If you would love children and would like to work with those who need help the most, this is your chance to show your social commitment while volunteering abroad.
To reduce the number of street dogs, there is a dog shelter in Cusco that gives many dogs a new home. Currently, there are about 30 dogs at this shelter being treated and trained (number is subject to changes). The shelter’s primary goal is to help rehabilitate the dogs so that they can be put up for adoption after their recovery.
