Program Overview

Volunteer in Peru with A Broader View Volunteers, a highly rated non-profit charity organization. Our placements are based in the Inca city of Cusco, Peru, and you may choose from 20 program options available.

In recent years, Peru has experienced a rise in tourism, providing some economic relief. However, millions of Peruvians still live below the poverty line, with more than half of the population struggling to survive and close to one-fourth living in extreme poverty.

Children are the hardest hit, with many living and working on the streets. Our volunteer programs aim to support these children by addressing their care, education, and health needs. In Cusco, Peru, we offer various social programs, including a medical program, teaching in primary and secondary schools, premedical/prenursing internships, and volunteering with orphanages and daycares. Additionally, you can combine these programs with Spanish immersion lessons while volunteering.

In the Peruvian Amazon

I was pleasantly surprised how nice it was to be without internet access at the national park in Peru. I had such an amazing time getting back into my body's natural rhythm, waking up at 6am with the sun and going to bed around 8pm! :) You need to bring ALL biodegradable substances: shampoo, toothpaste, and bug spray. However, you can also support the program by buying their products once you arrive. They sell all three of these products there for 40 soles. I had a truly eye opening 2 weeks and I have A Broader View to thanks. I learned so much from being in the jungle, and it really changed the way I think about the World. I hope I can use this experience to help better my own country!

It's my passion and dream to travel, and I want to gain more experience in other countries and get connected to different countries and people as well, to learn more about volunteering abroad with different people in the same field, and to boost my confidence in volunteering and how to take risks in war zones.
