Orphanage Volunteer Project Ecuador |
In the last two decades the population of Ecuador has doubled with growing incidences of abandoned children and teenage mothers in the streets or hospitals.
Most of these abandoned children are from poor indigenous families. Growing poverty, lack of education and limited governmental resources further worsen the problem of street children and orphans in Ecuador. In the capital city of Quito, our local partners initiated wonderful efforts to protect the life of these vulnerable kids from further exploitation. In these projects, there is a need for volunteers who are willing to share their efforts and love for children.
In this volunteer project in Ecuador the volunteers will help these under privileged children by teaching basic English or Spanish. Volunteer also help by feeding, caring for, and simply playing with these very young children. Without this affordable orphanage project, many of these children would be abandoned and homeless. Volunteers also help in developing creative programmes in art, music, dance, sports, etc. Additional help on day trips, sanitation, cooking, and administration might be requested. This project offers you one of the most wonderful volunteer opportunities to work in an orphanage and gives you the chance to share your love, skills and efforts with poor children. You can show your special skills and knowledge in music, dance, painting or any different activities.
Requirements: To have knowledge of Spanish language (intermediate level)
Time volunteering: 1 week minimum and maximum 12 weeks
Cost: USD 110 per week
The cost includes: Pick up airport, three meals per day and accommodation in a host family
